Schumann: “Year of Songs: Dichterliebe and Frauenliebe und Leben”

Ella Wilhelm, soprano

In the year 1840, a momentous chapter unfolded in the life of Robert Schumann. It was a year of love and artistic brilliance, as he not only joined his life with Clara through marriage but also composed a staggering number of 138 lieders.

Now, in a delightful celebration of Schumann’s Year of Songs, the Valois Concert Series proudly presents a captivating performance by the talented soprano Ella Wilhelm. Collaborated by co-artistic director of the Valois Concert Series, Judy Hung, this enchanting duo will breathe life into two of Schumann’s most prominent lieders from this iconic year: “Dichterliebe”(Poet’s Love) and “Frauenliebe und Leben” (Women’s Love and Life).
