The Aldeburgh Connection presents
Winterreise
The Greta Kraus Schubertiad 2008/09
$50
|
This year Aldeburgh Connection’s Schubertiad
features one of Canada’s finest baritones. Fresh from his
operatic triumphs as Eugene Onegin and Don Giovanni with the Canadian
Opera Company, Brett Polegato is an ideally dramatic singer who
can engage in the searing emotions of this great song-cycle, one
which sums up much of Schubert’s achievement as a supreme
songwriter.
