Sat, Apr 27, 2024
Schumann’s iconic Frauenliebe und -leben, a song cycle charting the journey of life as defined by the experience of love, will be the centrepiece of a concert in Galway this month.
Ring On My Finger, featuring Irish soprano Helen Hancock, accompanied by cellist Eszter Cetinceviz (Hungary) and pianist Ramin Haghjoo (USA), takes place in St Nicholas’ Collegiate Church, Galway City, on Sunday 28th April at 3pm.
Themed around love, marriage, life together, painful departures, and the depths of the human heart, the programme also includes works by Schubert, Strauss, Beach and Bruch.
