Music & Literature: Schubert's Schwanengesang

Franz Schubert is well known as one of the first great masters of the Romantic song, and his late song cycle Schwanengesang (Swan Song) is without exaggeration one of the most outstanding works of the genre in the 19th century. The masterpiece, set to, among others, poems by Heinrich Heine, can this time be heard in a thoroughly fresh and novel performance by a dazzlingly talented and extravagant young singer, Balga Gabriella, who emphasizes the topicality and personal relevance of Schubert’s songs. Complementing the poems that provide the texts of the songs, the deservedly popular Juhász Anna Irodalmi Szalon poetry program completes the evening.

The Juhász Anna Literary Salon celebrates its fifteenth anniversary in 2025. The initiative aims to forge a community of lovers of classical and contemporary literature. Their monthly gatherings – with staged readings, conversations, and music – are realized based on the ideas and hosting of the salon’s namesake, writer and cultural manager Anna Juhász, and typically feature the participation of outstanding domestic performers.
