ART SONG
Art Song is poetry set to music, usually performed by classically trained voice and piano accompaniment, at times with other instruments, in a chamber music setting. This medium is an art form combining the wisdom & insight of poetry with the inherent beauty of song & the scintillating drama of live performance with the power to stimulate public audiences in a thought provoking manner and enhance the quality of listener's lives.
Hugo Wolf 's Italian Songbook opens, "Auch kleine Dinge können uns entzücken,” or "even small things can entrance us." Each song, no matter how seemingly small, can provide a portal into another world----we believe this form provides a different dramatic tableau for expression without the operatic trappings of sets, costumes, and instrumental ensembles. Rather art song brings us back to the purity of the word and the beautiful relationship between text and music.
Every Voces Intimae artist has a unique story to tell, and your presence helps bring these stories to life.
