Activitats divulgatives

La Schubertíada ha preparat per l'edició d'enguany un seguit d'activitats divulgatives gratuïtes a l'entorn del món del lied i la música de cambra per aprofundir en el repertori d'aquesta 33a edició. 

Cent anys de Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau: la veu eterna del lied

El 28 de maig de 2025 es commemora el centenari del naixement d’una figura cabdal en la història del lied: Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (1925–2012). La seva mirada interpretativa, la riquesa de matisos de la seva veu, el seu excel·lent sentit rítmic i una dicció impecable van marcar un abans i un després en la manera d'entendre i cantar el lied alemany.
