Carl Loewe: Songs and Ballads
One of the magnificent Renaissance rooms of the castle in Bad Urach, Southern Germany, is the intimate setting for a concert of songs and ballads by Carl Loewe, featuring Juliane Banse (soprano), Hermann Prey (baritone), Dietrich Henschel (baritone), and Franz Hawlata (bass).
Loewe (1796-1869) came from Saxony and, unusually for a composer, was a singer of outstanding ability. He wrote brilliant, jolly and sensitive songs, demanding an agile vocal technique, and specialised particularly in the ballad, a long, usually dramatic narrative poem, set to music that varies with the poetic situation.
