Oxford Song: Winterreise
Oxford International Song Festival 2024 – Cities of Song
Winterreise
Audrey Saint-Gil, pianist
Christopher Maltman, baritone
To round off our Schubert Weekend, we are delighted to welcome back the ‘full, broad and aesthetically pleasing baritone’ (Opera Online) of Christopher Maltman, and outstanding French pianist and conductor Audrey Saint-Gil, whose recitals together have been highlights of the Festival in recent years. They perform Schubert’s seminal song cycle Winterreise, probably the best-known work of the entire song canon and one that rewards repeated hearings with an ever deeper revelation of human nature.
Oxford International Song Festival runs Friday 11 October to Saturday 26 October. The programme encompasses a wide variety of song, along with chamber music, cushion concerts, workshops, talks and tours. Events are held at venues across the city.
