British tenor Mark Padmore regularly performs with the leading orchestras and is as comfortable with operas by Monteverdi as he is with newly composed songs by Mark-Anthony Turnage. He also collaborates often with pianists like Mitsuko Uchida and Paul Lewis.

In a programme that sticks closely to the primary masters of music history, we hear songs by Beethoven – an often neglected aspect of his works, even if the song cycle An die ferne Geliebte (To the Distant Beloved) is among his better-known creations. The second part of the concert is dedicated to Robert Schumann, who of course took significant inspiration from Beethoven. Of Liederkreis, Robert said to his wife Clara that it was his “most romantic music ever, with a great deal of you in it.”

Together with Mark Padmore, we hear pianist Magnus Svensson, who specialises in the art of lied, and who has served as artistic director of Lied Evenings for several seasons. In addition to concerts in the Nordic region and elsewhere in Europe, he has also performed in Russia and the US. Since 2012, he has also worked at the Royal Swedish Academy of Music with re-publishing older Swedish music.

English

Den brittiske tenoren Mark Padmore framträder regelbundet med de främsta orkestrarna och rör sig lika bekvämt i operor av Monteverdi som nykomponerade sånger av Mark-Anthony Turnage. Han samarbetar också regelbundet med pianister som Mitsuko Uchida och Paul Lewis.

I ett program som håller sig till de centrala mästarna i musikhistorien hör vi bland annat sånger av Beethoven – en ofta försummad sida av hans skapande även om just sångcykeln An die ferne Geliebte (Till den fjärran älskade) hör till de mer kända. Konsertens andra avdelning ägnas Robert Schumann, som förstås inspirerades mycket av just Beethoven. Om Liederkreis sa Robert till hustrun Clara att det är ”min mest romantiska musik någonsin, med mycket av dig i sig”.

Tillsammans med Mark Padmore hör vi pianisten Magnus Svensson, som har romanskonsten som specialitet, och sedan flera säsonger tillbaka är konstnärlig ledare för romansserien. Vid sidan om konsertverksamhet i Norden och övriga Europa har han också spelat i Ryssland och USA. Sedan 2012 arbetar han även på Kungliga Musikaliska Akademien med återutgivning av äldre svensk musik.
