Im Wald – Werke, Texte und Gemälde von Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis

In the organizer's words:

On the 150th birthday of the Lithuanian national composer

From 1901 to 1902, the Lithuanian composer and painter M. K. Čiurlionis studied at the conservatory in Leipzig before returning to his homeland and becoming the country's most famous musician. During his time in Leipzig, he composed the tone poem "Im Wald", inspired by the Rosental valley, near where he lived. The pianists play arrangements for two hands on related themes such as "Fairy Tale", "Psalm" and "The Sea". Each of the themes is complemented by texts by the composer and his paintings, as well as an introduction to the composer's life by historian and musicologist Dr. Rüdiger Ritter.
