Christmas songs by Engelbert Humperdinck, Peter Cornelius, Robert Schumann, Gabriel Fauré, Eduard Toldra, Edvard Grieg, Maurice Ravel, Cecile Chaminade, Joseph Marx, Richard Strauss u. a.
In this concert, soprano Christiane Karg takes us on a Christmas journey. She experiences the "festival of love" through the eyes of a child and traces the "feeling of Christmas" in different languages and cultures.
It is a fairy tale with a happy ending - the "wondrous love story of the beautiful Magelone and Count Peter of Provence" by Ludwig Tieck from 1779. In his opus 33, Johannes Brahms set fifteen songs to music that are already included in Tieck's text. With its interplay of text and song, "Die schöne Magelone" is a unique piece - and a romantic love story that only seems a little out of date at first glance. After all, a little happiness in love and a happy ending are very much needed in this day and age.

What was already planned for June 2022 will now finally take place at this festive matinee: the awarding of the Hugo-Wolf-Medal to the "world's greatest song partnership" (New York Times), baritone Christian Gerhaher and pianist Gerold Huber.
You can find Christiane Iven's laudatory speechhere.
Works by Franz Schubert, George Gershwin, György Ligeti, Leonard Bernstein, Georges Aperghis and others.
Sarah Maria Sun and Jan Philip Schulze are always a guarantee for original and unusual song programs. This time, together with clarinettist Kilian Herold, they embark on a search for the truth about love. Will they find it in this lively and varied program?
After the rather pensive and philosophical men's ensemble project Nachthelle!, this second Schubert ensemble program, conceived by pianist Markus Hadulla, is much more cheerful. This time, ladies are also involved, allowing a performance of Schubert's delicious and unfortunately all too rarely heard trio Der Hochzeitsbraten. There won't be a dry eye in the house!
Let`s celebrate the New LiedJAHR of Internationale Hugo-Wolf-Akademie Stuttgart. Enjoy the great performance of Alexander Grassauer (bass-baritone) and Mauro Filippo Zappala (piano) - 2nd prize International Art Song Competition 2022.
