Matthias Goerne is one of the most versatile and internationally sought-after baritones and a frequent guest at renowned festivals and concert halls. He has collaborated with the world’s leading orchestras, conductors and pianists. Goerne’s artistry has been documented on numerous recordings, many of which have received prestigious awards, including four Grammy nominations, an ICMA Award, a Gramophone Award, the BBC Music Magazine Vocal Award 2017, and a Diapason d’or arte. Now over fifty, and with almost twenty-five years’ experience of the opera and concert stages to his credit, Goerne has been seeking to shed fresh light on the Lied repertoire by exploring the songs of selected composers with some of the most outstanding members of the younger generation. Recently, he has teamed up with pianist Jan Lisiecki to reveal some of Beethoven‘s rich and varied creations in this field.
