R&V Foundation – Rainer Maria Rilke and Arnold Schoenberg – a celebration of life and love

Thursday, May 7, 2015 - 18:30
Rilke and Schoenberg

The Rimbaud and Verlaine Foundation, in partnership with Ismena Collective, is delighted to invite you to a fascinating evening of poetry and music celebrating the lives and loves of Rainer Maria Rilke and Arnold Schoenberg.

Tickets for the event are £10 plus a small admin charge. Spaces are limited so please book now on Eventbrite www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/rainer-maria-rilke-and-arnold-schoenberg to secure your place.

This is a concert about life and love. Above all it celebrates the power of music. The programme includes musical settings and readings from Rilke's Orpheus Sonnets, 55 poems written in, as he described it, a ‘savage creative storm' of three weeks in 1922. There will also be performances of Schoenberg’s Verklärte Nacht in a version for piano trio and of songs by Edvard Grieg, Frederick Delius and Hugo Wolf.
