2/2

“Two song programs in one day spanned an arc from joie de vivre, poetry and righteous anger in the morning to mournful remembrance in the evening. Two friends experienced this together, Megan Marie Hart on stage, Joanne Herzberg in the audience.”

Thank you very much, dear Detlef Obens! Thank you Giacomo Marignani for performing with me, and Intendant Karsten Wiegand, Dramaturg Frederike Prick-Hoffmann and Bracha and dear Joanne for making it possible!

And the air pours in with piano notes
In its skirts, as though to say, “Look, John,
I’ve brought these and these”—that is,
A few Beethovens, some, Brahmses,
A few choice Poulenc notes. . .
