Georg Nigl, Martina Gedeck & Elena Bashkirova: Recital Various

Georg Nigl as Jakob Lenz in ‘Jakob Lenz’
Romantic vocal lines, atonal sprechgesang or even just spoken word – give Georg Nigl a text and he imprints expression and meaning on each and every syllable. In honour of his literary recital, we delved deep into our archives and found this – equally literary – fragment: his heartfelt interpretation of the poet Jakob Lenz in the eponymous opera by Wolfgang Rihm, which earned him the title of ‘Singer of the Year’ in 2015.

GEORG NIGL IS A MONOMANIAC, A MASTER HEDONIST, AND A MEGA VIRTUOSO.
— SÜDDEUTSCHE ZEITUNG
Macbeth, Achilles, Papageno the bird-catcher, or even the witch from Hänsel und Gretel… Georg Nigl is a man of many faces and many bravos at La Monnaie. In this special recital, the baritone and the actress Martina Gedeck (Das Leben der Anderen) take you on a journey through the pantheon of German literature and philosophy. Goethe, Nietzsche, Heine, Brecht – they all take the stage. At times to music by the greatest German lieder composers, at times in the vibrancy of a vivid reading. A surprising and exceptionally funny literary concert.
