Ieva PRUDNIKOVAITĖ – mezzo-soprano
Conductor Gintaras RINKEVIČIUS
PROGRAMME:
Richard WAGNER – Wesendonck Lieder
Anton BRUCKNER – Symphony no. 3
In his love-filled Wesendonck Lieder, the great German opera reformer, champion of ideals, and unifier of music and drama Wagner approaches the emotional intensity of his great opera Tristan and Isolde. The set will be performed by the Lithuanian mezzo-soprano and laureate of several competitions Ieva Prudnikovaitė. Meanwhile, Bruckner, despite being the complete opposite of Wagner, dedicated his Third Symphony to him, giving it symphonic breadth and scope.
