When people describe Beethoven the person, the composer's temper is often one of the first characteristics they point to. His anger and fiery personality are well documented, and it is easy to find those characteristics in his music as well. The composer's songs, however, reveal a different side. In a recital recorded in London's historic Wigmore Hall, fifteen-time GRAMMY-nominated tenor Ian Bostridge-who visits the University of Chicago (virtually) to deliver the 2021 Berlin Family Lectures-and poetic pianist Imogen Cooper reveal Beethoven the lover through some of the composer's most sentimental songs. The pair also share the concentrated surge of creativity unleashed by Robert Schumann when he was at last permitted to marry his love, Clara Wieck.

Presented in partnership with the Humanities Division.
