Vienna, 1900. The city has never been more brilliant, and everyone can feel it coming apart.
Three song cycles from that moment, sung in a single evening.
Wolf’s Michelangelo-Lieder, his last completed work, setting a sculptor’s poems about mortality and worth. Webern’s Acht Frühe Lieder, written while he was still working inside the old language he would soon break. And Mahler’s Kindertotenlieder, songs on the death of children, composed years before he lost his own daughter.
Cailin Marcel Manson sings all three. Bring someone you can be quiet with afterward.
