Literarische Begegnungen

Franz Grillparzer

Wer hätte das gedacht: Der junge Richard Wagner schreibt eine Novelle, die die Begegnung eines jungen Komponisten mit Beethoven zum Thema hat: „Eine Pilgerfahrt zu Beethoven“ – eine lockere Erzählung mit Humor, wie man ihn Wagner kaum zutraut. Beethoven als Mensch tritt uns auf diesen CDs noch in anderen literarischen Brechungen entgegen, in Gedichten Lenaus oder Brentanos, in Grillparzers Erinnerungen oder eigenen Briefen. Die Vortragskunst von Michael Heltau macht alle diese Texte zu einem besonderen Vergnügen! Legendary composer Richard Wagner wrote a novella revolving around a meeting between a young composer and none other than Ludwig van Beethoven: "Eine Pilgerfahrt zu Beethoven“ (A Pilgrimage to Beethoven) is a light-hearted, humorous tale that is not necessarily expected of Wagner, who is mostly remembered for his serious operas. Other literary works included in this recording feature Beethoven as a character as well, in poems by Lenas, memories of Grillparzer, and letters by Beethoven himself. Michael Heltau’s performance ensures a highly entertaining production. Author - Franz Grillparzer. Narrator - Michael Heltau. Published Date - Thursday, 19 January 2023.
