Where better for The Erlkings to celebrate their 10th anniversary than on the very stage where it all began: the Porgy & Bess!
The Erlkings have been touring across Europe for a decade: Wigmore Hall London, Konzerthaus Berlin, Wiener Konzerthaus, Ludwigsburger Schloss Festspiele, Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival and of course the Schubertiade in Hohenems, to name but a few.
Now, after 6 albums and numerous performances throughout Europe, they return to the unique Porgy & Bess, where it all began.
The quartet with Bryan Benner, Thomas Toppler, Simon Teurezbacher and Ivan Turkalj shows the vitality and lightness of the art songs of Schubert, Schumann, Beethoven and Haydn, but also their depth and weight of meaning. 200-year-old songs touch our hearts, make us dance or cry, touch our minds. Whether in Vienna or London, young or old, classical music fan or pop freak: excitement and joy are guaranteed with The Erlkings. Music at its very best.
Special guests will make the evening unique, and The Erlkings will celebrate - with you, the fans of the past and coming 10 years. (Press release)
