To end this week's celebration of vocal and choral music with orchestra in Afternoon Concert, we take a second trip to Finland - for Schoenberg's epic cantata Gurrelieder, setting poems by the Danish writer Jens Peter Jacobsen set in the Gurre Castle in North Zealand. It's the scene of a (historically dubious) medieval tragedy depicting the love of the Danish king Waldemar for his mistress Tove, and Tove's murder by Waldemar's jealous Queen Helvig. Torsten Kerl sings the role of the King with Emily Magee as Tove in this performance at the 2019 Helsinki Festival.
To round off this week of highlights from European summer festivals, we return to the archive of the Martha Argerich Project for a concert given in Lugano in 2012, when Maria Jo茫o Pires was the soloist in Mozart's D minor piano concerto K.466.
Presented by Georgia Mann.
