The festival LIEDBasel (SongBasel), which will run this year from May 22-26, is a contemporary and interdisciplinary examination of the art form of song. It's not just about the intimacy of singing and piano—and not just about the past, because the interpreters are people who live in the present. The song is about life in a nutshell. It reflects everyday life in different centuries and different facets. It tells and sings about individuals trying to assert themselves in society. Unlike an aria, the song is the entire story, told in just a few minutes. That’s what makes the song so extraordinary and distinctive. The festival consists of six formats, including discussions, master classes, recitals, and more . These different starting points should inspire not only the performers, but also the audience. The individual events offer opportunities for exchange and reflection. Consult the website to peruse the whole program at https://liedbasel.ch/programm/.
On this Sunday morning, the duos that had participated in the LIEDAcademy master class curate a program based on the motto “The Spirits I Called” and present an unusual repertoire alongside well-known works of song literature.
Tickets are on a pay-what-you-can basis, CHF 20, CHF 40, or CHF 60. Festival passes for 6 events are CHF 150.
