Schubert, America, and the Police

  • DANK Haus 4740 North Western Avenue Chicago, IL, 60625 United States (map)

Pauline joins Pierre Nicolas-Colombat in a lecture-recital at the historic DANK Haus German American Cultural Center.

This program features the standard German Romantic tropes of the Wanderer, the wilderness, Sehnsucht and Einsamkeit. Centered on the music of Franz Schubert and Robert Schumann as well as the poetry of Nikolaus Lenau and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, our selections will highlight the under-appreciated ways in which American audiences and performers can find agency in the context of typically Germanic Romantic repertoire.
