VeelbeLEUVENd opens its fourth season with a fresh Schubertiade. It promises to be an intimate evening with the entire group of young professionals bringing Schubert’s timeless music to life. Actor Armin Mola
weaves the musical elements into a compelling narrative with a specially written text by Rik Vanden Broeck. VeelbeLEUVENd reveals another glimpse of Schubert’s genius.
The concert takes you on a journey through Schubert’s most moving and virtuosic works. From the playful (Die Forelle) to the intense (Der Wanderer), and from the lyrical (Gretchen am Spinrade) to the majestic (Octet): each piece highlights a different facet of Schubert’s genius. The evening reaches its climax with Auf dem Strom, a work Schubert composed for a unique combination of voice, piano and horn. The concert concludes with a reprise of Die Forelle, this time from Schubert’s quintet of the same name; a nod to the start of the evening.
This reborn Schubertiade will be a celebration of music and young talent. Young performers at the start of their careers bring Schubert to life with passion and skill. Let yourself be carried away by the beauty of his music, the power of the story and the fresh energy of this new generation of musicians.-------------------------
