A meditation on sound and silence, solitude and communion, love and loss, explored through the intertwined narratives of Yasuna, one of the great Kabuki plays dating back to 1818, and Schubert’s iconic Winterreise, conceived a decade later in 1827. In the world premiere of Spring Snow, grief splinters the psyches of both Schubert’s Wanderer and Yasuna, compelling a journey into the depths of Self. This is where our performance begins: two individual paths converging and inspiring each other in beautiful ways, as a famous song cycle is interwoven with original shamisen music and traditional Japanese dance-theatre.

Julius Drake, Piano
For Franz Schubert, Vienna was not only his hometown but also a significant source of inspiration. Yet, he often sought respite in nature, where he could freely and undisturbedly nurture his musicality. Both in Vienna and the countryside, he performed intimate house concerts for culturally inclined admirers, known as Schubertiades, often improvising the program on the spot.
Renowned pianist Elisabeth Leonskaja, who performs on major stages worldwide and calls Vienna her home, similarly retreats to Semmering for the summer. This time, she presents her personal Schubertiade, performing solo and in duet with Julius Drake, a highly esteemed Lied pianist. Together, they will showcase two- and four-handed pieces by Schubert.
This premiere in their collaboration follows the tradition of house concerts, where four-handed playing was common in Schubert’s time. Julius Drake highlights the vocal elements in Schubert’s works, known as the “Prince of Song.” The key pieces of the evening, the early Sonata in A minor and the Grand Duo, reflect a grand orchestral thinking that bridges the intimate salon with the concert hall, a recognition Schubert rarely received during his lifetime. The remaining program will be a surprise, adhering to the house concert tradition among friends.

Julius Drake Pianist
International opera and theatre director and Ustinov Studio Artistic Director Deborah Warner brings to life Schubert’s Winterreise (Winter Journey), a cycle of 24 songs for voice and piano set to poems by Wilhelm Müller, performed by renowned tenor Ian Bostridge and pianist Julius Drake.
A man begins a long journey through the snow in deepest winter. He wanders alone, grief stricken, longing to forget the memories of his beloved who has rejected him. His journey is tortured, painful and leads him to question his identity and existence.
Composed in 1827 towards the end of his short life, Franz Schubert’s Winterreise is considered one of the greatest and most powerful musical masterpieces. The music captures the torrent of emotion and poetic themes of loneliness, darkness, winter and love. Deborah Warner’s new staging for the Ustinov Studio honours Schubert’s original intention for the piece to be sung to an intimate gathering.
Ian Bostridge’s extraordinary international career has taken him to the foremost concert halls, orchestras and opera houses of the world. His vast experience with Schubert’s Winterreise (he has performed the song cycle in concert over 100 times) inspires his book Schubert’s Winter Journey: Anatomy of an Obsession (2015).
With an international reputation as one of the finest instrumentalists in his field, Julius Drake collaborates with many of the world’s leading artists, both in recital and on disc. He has performed and recorded Winterreise with Bostridge and many artists throughout his career.
“Winter Journey” is an indispensable work of art that should be as much a part of our common experience as the poetry of Shakespeare and Dante, the paintings of Van Gogh and Picasso, the novels of the Brontë sisters or Marcel Proust.” Ian Bostridge

This is a rare opportunity to hear Hanns Eisler’s astonishing Hollywood Songbook, performed by the ‘irresistible’ (The Arts Desk) Holger Falk, and Festival favourite Julius Drake. This epic song cycle was started in a Hollywood hotel in 1942 and saw the composer collaborate closely with fellow émigré Bertolt Brecht. The result is a searing and still relevant commentary on inequality, war and enforced immigration, set against the seemingly beautiful backdrop of Los Angeles. Not to be missed.

The NDR Vokalensemble presents vocal works by Franz Schubert and Arnold Schönberg in the Elbphilharmonie Grand Hall. Pianist Julius Drake accompanies the ensemble under the direction of Klaas Stok. »I am a conservative. I preserve progress,« Arnold Schönberg is said to have once said. As contradictory as the statement sounds, it is true. In retrospect, the name Arnold Schönberg is often equated with atonality and twelve-tone music – but the composer’s path there led him through the Romantic period. Schönberg sought modern elements in Romanticism, which he was able to transform and continue. He also studied and arranged works by Franz Schubert.

When Victoria de los Ángeles passed away in 2005, Ofelia Sala paid a beautiful tribute to her at the Gran Teatre del Liceu. Years later, in 2013, Sala was the inaugural voice of the LIFE Victoria series, performing with Helmut Deutsch in a recital at La Pedrera. Now, eleven years later, she returns to the festival, this time collaborating for the first time with Julius Drake. Together, they offer a heartfelt tribute to Victoria de los Ángeles during this centenary edition, featuring works by Mozart, Strauss, Schubert, and Brahms. For Ofelia Sala, Victoria de los Ángeles has always been an undisputed inspiration. She holds a special place in Julius Drake’s heart as well, as she was his mother’s favorite singer.

The phenomenal tenor Nicky Spence is known as one of the most charismatic figures of classical music. He was awarded ‘Personality of the Year’ by BBC Music Magazine in 2022, is a former winner of the BBC Music Magazine Vocal Award, and Gramophone’s Solo Vocal Award. For the closing concert of this year’s Festival, he joins forces with the pre-eminent pianist Julius Drake and one of the UK’s finest string quartets. Together they perform Fauré’s great cycle La Bonne Chanson, which sets the poetry of Paul Verlaine. Marcel Proust was an early fan, writing that ‘it appears needlessly complex … but I don’t care, I adore it!’ After this, a series of tributes in song, with works by Schubert, Vaughan Williams, Poulenc, Coward and others, provide a truly exuberant finale.
Programme:
Gabriel Fauré (1845 – 1924)
La bonne chanson (1894) Op. 61
Une sainte en son auréole
Puisque l’aube grandit
La lune blanche
J’allais par des chemins perfides
J’ai presque peur, en vérité
Avant que tu ne t’en ailles
Donc, ce sera par un clair jour d’été
N’est-ce pas?
L’hiver a cessé

The Temple Music Winter Festival opens with this epic tale of lost love and despair. Rejected by his beloved, the protagonist sets out on a brutally icy and lonely journey, with only the snow, the bare trees and the occasional crow to keep him company. A gradual descent into madness ensues, depicted in some of Schubert’s most devastatingly beautiful music.

Schubert: Winterreise

Soprano Soprano Anna Prohaska and Pianist Julius Drake come together once again to present selections from their highly praised album “Paradise Lost”
“This project, which has been two years in the making, finds Anna Prohaska and Julius Drake exploring music on the themes of Eve, Paradise and banishment.
Some songs were obvious choices, such as Fauré’s Paradis, in which God appears to Eve and asks her to name each flower and animal, or Purcell’s Sleep, Adam, sleep with its references to Genesis. But Anna Prohaska also wished to illustrate the cliché of the woman who brought original sin into the world and her status as a temptress who leads man astray, as in Brahms’s Salamander, Wolf’s Die Bekehrte or Ravel’s Air du Feu. In Das Paradies und die Peri, Schumann conjures up the image of Syria’s rose-covered plains. Bernstein also transports us to the desert with Silhouette.
John Milton’s seventeenth-century masterpiece Paradise Lost was the inspiration for Charles Ives and Benjamin Britten, also featured in this very rich programme that constitutes an invitation to travel and reflection.”

Trois beaux oiseaux du paradis (from Trois chansons)

Event Details
This first Recital Hall concert of the Mahler Festival focuses on Mahler’s most beautiful songs. Today’s most important Lieder accompanist, pianist Julius Drake, flanks vocalists he admires. Scottish mezzo-soprano Catriona Morison is praised for her refined yet full voice. ‘A real star,’ according to the Times. You will also hear baritone James Newby, winner of the Kathleen Ferrier Award. He recently released the acclaimed album Fallen to Dust.
Julius Drake chose a series of songs full of drama and poetry for Morison and Newby. That poetry sometimes comes from Mahler himself, as today in Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen. ‘When my dearest marries’ is the name of one of the songs. The lady in question did not marry Mahler, who experienced this as a ‘glowing knife’ in his heart. He processed all his frustration and sorrow in this stirring song cycle. In the five lyrical Rückert-Lieder, he shows a happier side.

During the Mahler Festival, the Recital Hall is dedicated to Mahler’s most beautiful songs. Perhaps today’s most important Lieder accompanist, pianist Julius Drake, flanks vocalists he admires. Today, these are mezzo-soprano Ema Nikolovska and bass-baritone Jusung Gabriel Park.
In Des Knaben Wunderhorn, Mahler chose his favourite texts from the very old German collection of the same name. He composed twelve sometimes fairy-tale-like songs. Love, faith, heroic deeds… everything floats by. They are sung by Macedonian-Canadian Ema Nikolovska and South Korean Jusung Gabriel Park. The latter is making his Amsterdam debut. Drake chooses to have some songs sung by the soloists together. ‘Even though they are not necessarily written as such, there are often clearly two characters speaking,’ he said in Preludium. ‘And as a duet they work really beautifully.’

Event Details
The Recital Hall is dedicated to Mahler’s most beautiful songs during the Mahler Festival. Perhaps the most important song accompanist of the moment, pianist Julius Drake, flanks his favourite vocalists. Today, these are Feride Büyükdenktaş and Stuart Jackson. Together they sing the moving Das Lied von der Erde, in Mahler’s own version for two vocalists and piano.
Six narrative movements make up Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde. He based the songs on texts about nature, death and life. He used ancient Chinese texts in German translation. A ‘drinking song on the earthly vale of tears’ is the start of a stirring series of reflections on farewell and new beginnings. Das Lied von der Erde was written for two voices. Today you will hear Feride Büyükdenktaş, a Turkish mezzo-soprano who has already shone on the major opera stages of Vienna, Stuttgard and Istanbul. British tenor Stuart Jackson gets jubilant reviews at home, and is now more and more often singing across the globe.

The Recital Hall is dedicated to Mahler’s most beautiful songs during the Mahler Festival. Perhaps today’s most important Lieder accompanist, pianist Julius Drake, flanks his favourite vocalists. Today, you hear British mezzo-soprano Fleur Barron, praised by critics for her charisma and clarity. You will also hear young tenor Laurence Kilsby, the 2022 winner of the Wigmore Hall’s International Song Competition.
Mahler’s moving Kindertotenlieder are set to texts by Friedrich Rückert. This song cycle deals with coping with the death of two of the poet’s children. Some years after its completion, Mahler himself lost his daughter. Julius Drake had already regularly performed the Kindertotenlieder with Fleur Barron. ‘Fleur has such an extraordinary voice,’ he said in Preludium.’ A mezzo, but when she sings, you can hear a contra-alt, very special.’ Drake also chose several pieces from Des Knaben Wunderhorn for this recital. For these works, Mahler based himself on old German folk song texts. Mahler drew from the same textbook before. Today, Barron and tenor Laurence Kilsby perform the Lieder und Gesänge, a song cycle Mahler wrote in his twenties.

For four days, the Recital Hall is dedicated to Mahler’s most beautiful songs. A special recital is dedicated to his wife Alma, combining pieces by her with those by friends. Perhaps today’s most important Lieder accompanist, pianist Julius Drake, flanks his favourite vocalists during all these concerts. Today you will hear French soprano Axelle Fanyo, a ‘true storyteller’ according to Forum Opéra. She shares the stage with one of the greatest Dutch talents, baritone Raoul Steffani.
Austrian Alma Maria Schindler was introduced to her future husband, Gustav Mahler, by her composition teacher Zemlinsky. Under Mahler’s name, she would become known – but never primarily as a composer. Mahler did not want his wife to write any more music, and Alma herself also had doubts about her work. Although most of it has been lost, her late-romantic, often melancholic songs are still widely performed. Here today in the Recital Hall, they alternate with pieces by friends and acquaintances. Axelle Fanyo and Raoul Steffani perform songs by Ernst Krenek, Mahler’s son-in-law. You will also hear works by Berg, Korngold and Stravinsky.

Until the beginning of the 20th century, few composers engaged with the works of Friedrich Hölderlin— it almost seems as if music had to shed tonality and for mal restraints to come to terms with the expressive power of the poet’s language. In this Lied und Lyrik program, Katrīna Paula Felsberga and Julius Drake explore the wideranging musical afterlife of Hölderlin in the “free future century” he envisioned in his 1806 Hymn to Freedom. The texts will be heard in musical settings and readings.
