After four successful seasons, Dorothea Spilger bids farewell to the audience of the Badisches Staatstheater as a member of the ensemble with this recital. The program, curated by the mezzo-soprano, features Robert Schumann’s Five Songs on Poems by Queen Mary Stuart, Op. 135, and selected songs by Johannes Brahms. In addition, she offers a multifaceted exploration of the lullaby genre in Benjamin Britten’s *A Charm of Lullabies*, Op. 41, and delves into the depths of grief and hope in Gustav Mahler’s *Kindertotenlieder *. A farewell that is as personal as it is moving.
