Pianist Leif Ove Andsnes (Simon Fowler)No Love Lost
Schubert’s epic song cycle “Winterreise” is a tale of romance gone wrong, of a jilted lover's tormented wanderings through the snowy night. Who better to bring this saga to life than an Englishman (tenor Ian Bostridge) and a Norwegian (pianist Leif Ove Andsnes)? Two of today’s most eloquent young classical musicians, they join us today to share the results of their team work. Also: Bernice Johnson Reagon, founder and artistic director of the a capella group Sweet Honey in the Rock and a history professor at American University, tells us about her score and libretto for “The Temptation of St. Anthony.” The work, by stage director Robert Wilson, is an adaptation of Flaubert's 1874 novel about a man's struggle for piety.
