KULTURMITTAG: IN A PERSIAN GARDEN

Cycle featuring vocal quartet and piano

Lieder & singing | Literature | Classic | Concert | Reading | Adults

Carpe diem! A group of artists leads us into the creative world of Omar Khayyam (1048-1131), the Persian polymath and poet. Edward Fitzgerald (1809-1883) created glorious English translations of his work, which were subsequently set to music by the English composer Liza Lehmann (1862-1918). Together, they combine Oriental flair with the language of the High Romantic.
