Christian Gerhaher in conversation with Philipp Bohnen
Antonello Manacorda and Christian Gerhaher
Antonello Manacorda is at home in the great opera houses. As chief conductor of the Kammerakademie Potsdam, he has also made award-winning recordings, including the complete Schubert symphonies. Rarely has this music sounded “leaner, more logical, more exhilarating”, Der Spiegel wrote. For his debut with the Philharmoniker, Manacorda had programmed Schubert’s “Unfinished”. A further highlight is Mahler’s Rückert-Lieder, with baritone Christian Gerhaher.
