Program:
Texts from the book: Die Brahmskommode
Piano pieces by Johannes Brahms and Elisabeth von Herzogenberg
A very special evening. Kaspar Wolfensberger reads from his book «Die Brahmskommode» and the piano accompaniment is provided by two, Claire Pasquier and Jansen Ryser. In the summer of 1874, the composer Johannes Brahms composes, drinks, argues, and flirts high above Lake Zurich. Friends and spa guests come and go. The author later discovers things in a wardrobe believed lost that testify to that «student» summer of Brahms and his friends.
Highlights
- Reading from the book «Die Brahmskommode» by Kaspar Wolfensberger
