Winterreise - Franz Schubert
Song Evening
Winterreise
Franz Schubert
Florian Pejrimovsky, Bass-Baritone
Ekaterina Nokkert, Piano
Franz Schubert's profound masterpiece of romantic song art touches in the atmospheric setting of the crypt of St. Peter's Church. For his "Winterreise," Schubert set 24 songs to poems by Wilhelm Müller about the wanderer who gave up everything but follows his longing.
The Austrian bass-baritone Florian Pejrimovsky is one of Vienna's favorite performers. Known for roles such as Scarpia ("Tosca"), Germont ("La Traviata"), or in the title role of Rigoletto, he impresses during the joint song evening with Ekaterina Nokkert at the piano with fine sensitivity and expression for the demanding nuances. A special pleasure for connoisseurs and those who want to become one.
Established as the smallest theater in Austria, the song evenings and opera performances stand out for their high quality. Located deep beneath St. Peter’s Church in Vienna, this extraordinary venue offers a personal experience like hardly any other event location.
At any time of year, the KRYPTA is pleasantly temperate.
