Lieder im Gluck

The singers of the Opera Ensemble create great musical moments in operas and operettas, but also in the intimate setting of a song recital. The smallest musical form, with its many facets, gets to enjoy the spotlight nine times throughout the season, from Baroque and Romantic music to the songs of the 1920s.
