Im Abendrot
19 October 2025, 3:00pm - 4:15pm
Nikola Hillebrand won the prestigious ‘Das Lied’ competition in Heidelberg in 2019, and alongside her glittering operatic career she is already well established as one of the most exciting song singers today. She appears for the first time at the Festival with the pianist Julius Drake, long hailed as one of the pre-eminent song pianists, in a programme of favourite Schubert songs: the perfect way to pass a Sunday afternoon.
