For the opening concert of the 2018/19 series—titled “Neue Lieder, Neue Welt,” or “New Songs, New World”—Scharich and Ballestero will perform a program of music of the 19th century Brazilian Alberto Nepomuceno (1864-1920) and his muses, Richard Strauss and Ernest Chausson, and in particular that of his friend, the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg. Scharich—who is one of LIEDER ALIVE!’s two Artists-in-Residence—and Ballestero have been refining this program in São Paulo, Brazil—where the pianist is based--for some years and are excited to be able to share it with San Francisco audiences this fall.
