In two weeks’ time on Saturday 15 February 2025, collaborative pianist Sachiko Hidaka and I will be performing a recital titled ‘German Lieder and French Mélodies: Songs of Schumann, Brahms, Poulenc and Ravel’, from 1:00–1:45pm in the beautiful North Adelaide Baroque Hall.

I’m pleased to announce the recital program, which comprises art songs in both German and French. The songs explore themes of hope, mystery, love and nostalgia, and also feature a wide range of characters within them. These include a mysterious woman walking through the forest, a mother with almost twenty daughters, and a kind elderly man who brings joy to those around him.

Translations of the song texts will be provided on the day – there will be a QR code provided to access a digital translations booklet in colour, as well as a limited number of complimentary black and white printed copies of the booklet.
