After two ravishing performances in the Gulbenkian Music 2016/17 season, with the Gustav Mahler Jugendorchester and conductor Daniel Harding, the German baritone Christian Gerhaher returns with an exquisite programme that pays special attention to Goethe’s poetry and his expression in music. For Jorge Calado, critic of Expresso, Gerhaher “is a total singer, that is, complete and perfect”. “As if having one of the most refined, beautiful and versatile voices of current times were not enough… he also puts it at the service of an intelligence dominated by the values of the language in which he sings”.
