Ensemble Q 2025 3 Concert Package
Ensemble Q 2025 3 Concert Package is now available to purchase.
Overview
Arguably the most exciting baritone of his generation, 43-year-old German-British artist Benjamin Appl returns to Australia to perform for the Queensland Art Song Festival and Ensemble Q. Described by Limelight magazine in his 2023 Sydney Opera House five star reviewed debut as “beautiful, powerful, tender and menacing by turns”, Appl was chosen to perform the European Premiere of Jörg Widmann’s new and incredible realisation of Schumann’s Dichterliebe (Schumannliebe) and now, the Australian premiere with Ensemble Q, in partnership with the Queensland Art Song Festival.
Adam Chalabi is known and admired for his exquisitely poetic violin playing and will treat us to a rare performance of Chausson’s Poème in an arrangement by the composer for violin, string quartet and piano. The German-based violist Benjamin Roskams will be flying across the world to join Paul Dean and Daniel de Borah in Schumann’s dreamily romantic Märchenerzählungen.
It’s going to be a program full of love, poetry and beauty, with a twist.
Program
Henri Chausson Poème, Op. 25
Robert Schumann Märchenerzählungen (Fairytales) Op 132
Jörg Widmann Schumannliebe (Australian Premiere)
An exciting night of musical excellence – Australia has every right to be proud of these musicians!
Presented by Ensemble Q and QPAC
