OXFORD INTERNATIONAL SONG FESTIVAL: BRAHMS DIE SCHÖNE MAGELONE
Brahms Die schöne Magelone
Dietrich Henschel baritone
Angharad Rowlands mezzo-soprano
Sholto Kynoch piano
Victoria Newlyn narrator
Johannes Brahms is perhaps not a composer often associated with realms of fairytales and fantasy, but throughout the 1860s he set fifteen of the poems from Ludwig Tieck’s 1797 novel The Love Story of the Beautiful Magelone and Count Peter of Provence. The story dates back to at least the 13th century and follows the adventures and trials of a young knight, Peter, and his beloved Magelone.
Today, we hear this complete cycle of songs, with their richly varied musical portrayals, interspersed with an abridged version of the novel, read by Victoria Newlyn.
