His current set of performances is at the Park Avenue Armory’s Drill Hall--in a staged production by Claud Guth, commissioned by the Armory, of Schubert lieder, under the title DOPPELGANGER, an evening of autumnal chill through words and music that were “anxious and heavy,” through a heart “utterly alone.”
