Ras i curt
Què ens hi trobarem?
És un honor comptar, per a un concert tan significatiu com l'inaugural, amb Elionor Martínez i Ferran Albrich -dos cantants catalans becats del programa 'Lied the Future' el 2023 i el 2022, respectivament- i la pianista Victoria Guerrero -també vinculada a la Schubertíada de fa anys. El programa començarà amb lieder de Franz Schubert, per continuar amb mélodie i acabar amb una àmplia selecció de cançons d'Eduard Toldrà.
El compositor destacat
El pianista Dalton Baldwin, apassionat de les cançons de Toldrà, deia que li recordaven les d'Hugo Wolf, pels colors, la sensibilitat i la personalitat musical tan especial. Certament, el públic de la Schubertíada coneix bé la música de Toldrà (molt vinculat a l'Alt Empordà), però que un gran mestre con Baldwin en parli amb tanta admiració ens fa encara més conscients de la grandesa del compositor.
