Classical music lovers are in for a treat this month as baritone singer Cornelius de Munck is joined by acclaimed Ukrainian pianist Anna Bogachova for a special concert in Margaret River.
The former Head of Classical Voice and Senior Lecturer of Music at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts will perform what is arguably the most popular song cycle in the entire classical voice repertoire, Robert Schumann’s Dichterliebe (Poet’s Love).
The sequence of songs will be sung in the original German language, with translations provided to the audience. Featuring alongside the performance will be a screening of illustrations and artworks to enhance the mood and bring each vocal piece to life.
Pianist Bogachova will a;so play a short piano solo by Schumann as an introduction to the larger concert. The duo will perform at the Margaret River Uniting Church on Sunday June 26 from 3pm. Tickets ($20 inc light refreshments) can be purchased at the door, with proceeds to local charities.
