On October 27 baritone Simon Keenlyside will return to Herbst Theatre for his second recital under San Francisco Performances (SFP) auspices. His accompanist will be pianist Malcolm Matineau. Keenlyside has prepared a rich and extensive program of songs by Gustav Mahler, George Butterworth, Richard Strauss, Henri Duparc, and Claude Debussy. His selections are so fascinating that it should be sufficient to account for all of them:
MAHLER
Ich atmet' einen linden Duft!
Des Antonius von Padua Fischpredigt
Ich ging mit Lust durch einen grünen Wald
Blicke mir nicht in die Lieder
Frühlingsmorgen
Liebst du um Schönheit
Wer hat dies Liedlein erdacht
BUTTERWORTH
A Shropshire Lad (1st set only)
Loveliest of trees
When I was one-and-twenty
Look not into my eyes
Think no more, lad
The lads in their hundreds
Is my team ploughing?
INTERMISSION
STRAUSS
Winternacht
Waldesfahrt
Das Rosenband
Befreit
Epheu
Ständchen
DUPARC
Le Manoir de Rosemonde
Phidylé
DEBUSSY
Nuit d'étoiles
Voici que le printemps
Les Angélus
Mandoline
