Auin, Tegner, Munktell, Tham, Schumann
Chamber music and songs by pioneering 19th century Swedish women composers including Valborg Aulin, Alice Tegner and Helene Tham plus Clara Schumann's virtuosic piano trio.
This week we have a chance to hear little-performed chamber music & songs, sung by star Swedish lyric soprano Hillevi Martinpelto, by pioneering 19th-century Swedish women composers including Valborg Aulin, Alice Tegnér, Helena Munktell & Hélène Tham. Alice Tegnér found fame in the great many children’s songs that she composed which were exceedingly popular and many of them are still central to the Swedish children’s song tradition, while Helena Munktell studied in Paris under Émile Durand & Vincent d'Indy and was the first Swedish woman to write an opera. The centrepiece of today's recital is the 1846 Piano Trio by Clara Schumann which sparkles with intensity & virtuosity.
Presented by Andrew McGregor.
