Schubert as you’ve never heard him before!

Did you know that Franz Schubert wrote some texts and poems? One of them, «My Dream», from 1822, retells one of such fantasies in which themes of death, love and reconciliation intertwine. This concert will be a true journey through the composer’s imagination, with the Luxembourg Philharmonic, Nicolas Ellis and James Atkinson as travelling companions.
