Thomas Hampson, bariton
Ksenija Sidorova, accordion

Following his great success with Daniel Hope at BTHVN WOCHE 2024, American baritone Thomas Hampson returns to Bonn for a special recital. Together with Latvian musician Ksenija Sidorova, one of the world's outstanding classical accordionists, he will present an unusual version of Schubert's 'Die Winterreise', a key work in Hampson's career. The song cycle will be complemented in the second part of the concert by music by Astor Piazzolla and Igor Stravinsky, in which Ksenija Sidorova will also be able to demonstrate her skills, and the wonderful songs by Kurt Weill.
