Kaufman-Gitter Hall
Yaron London, narrator | Yehuda Inbar, piano
A unique evening blending readings from Stefan Zweig’s The World of Yesterday with piano selections that echo the spirit of the era. At the heart of the program is the melodrama “The Lay of the Love and Death of Cornet Christopher Rilke” by Viktor Ullmann, set to the text by Rainer Maria Rilke—the revered poet who is also featured in Zweig’s memoir. A literary-musical experience connecting words, sounds, and cultural memory.
