SUMMARY:Liederabend: Wolfgang Holzmair Sings the Songs of Max Kowalski at Center for Jewish History
DESCRIPTION:The Leo Baeck Institute and the American Society for Jewish Music invite you for a night of live music with Wolfgang Holzmair (baritone) and Thérèse Lindquist (piano) on February 7th\, 7:30PM EST at the Center for Jewish History. \nMax Kowalski (1882–1956) was born in Poland but raised and educated in Frankfurt am Main\, where he studied composition with Bernhard Sekles. He also obtained a law degree from the Univerisity of Marburg and represented musicians and composers including Arnold Schoenberg. A specialist in lieder whose setting of Guiraud’s Pierrot Lunaire (1912) earned him early accolades\, he had a productive career as both an attorney and a widely published composer until the Nazi rise to power. Following his wife’s suicide and his own arrest and internment in the Buchenwald concentration camp\, Kowalski emigrated to London in 1939. He struggled to regain his earlier success as a composer and made a living as a teacher\, cantor\, and piano tuner. \nReflecting on his own work as an artist Kowalski once observed\,“I am not concerned with any kind of ‘principles.’ I am an arch-romantic and rely wholly on feeling.” And then in a turn to Goethe’s Faust\, “Feeling is all!” \nPlease note that by registering for this event\, you are opting into communications from the Leo Baeck Institute. \nDisplay photo: Composer and singer Max Kowalski May 29\, 1948\, LBI: Max Kowalski Collection AR 7049.
