Dichterliebe, Op. 40

On the very day on which Robert Schumann was born, we celebrate the
200th anniversary of his birth, and who better to lead us in this tribute than
Wolfgang Holzmair, one of the world’s leading exponents of Schumann’s songs.

Austrian by birth, Holzmair has performed in all of the world’s major
concert halls and opera houses, and it is a special pleasure to welcome him to Temple Song for this major anniversary.
In addition to the Dichterliebe cycle, the programme also includes further
Schumann settings of Heine’s poems.

Tickets: £20, £15, £10

hear future stars of the concert platform working with one of the world’s outstanding accompanists.

Acclaimed for his epic overnight vigil piece, The Veil of the Temple, which was commissioned by the Temple Church and premiered there in 2003, we are delighted to host the London premiere of Sir John Tavener’s extraordinary new work for 4 string quartets and large Tibetan bowl.

The Medici Quartet is joined by three emerging quartets, mentored by them, to perform this extraordinarily moving and deeply spiritual work which is a meditation on the four states of Atma. It uses both space and sound to explore the nature of consciousness and the tenuous yet vital creative connection that may be experienced near death.
