Schumann, Beethoven, Lieberson & Esmail: Musical Missives to the Adored
The season closes on musical love letters, among them Peter Lieberson's Neruda Songs, written for his wife Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, who had sung and played viola with Emmanuel Music. Schumann, Beethoven and Reena Esmail complete the programme. Lieberson set Neruda's love sonnets in Spanish, and she premiered them in Boston in 2005.
