Love in Many Voices: Brahms and the Art of the Waltz | SongFest 2026

This program centers on Johannes Brahms’s Liebeslieder Walzer, Op. 52, a beloved set of waltzes for vocal quartet and piano four hands that captures love in all its forms—tender, playful, ironic, and bittersweet. Paired with solo songs and chamber works by Brahms, the program highlights his gift for transforming folk-inspired dance rhythms into intimate, expressive music that celebrates human connection and collaboration.
