Faculty News: Carlson, Renbarger Perform Schubert’s “Winterreise” in Arizona

Drs. Stephen Carlson, professor of music and chair of the Department of Music, and Cory Renbarger, associate professor of music, will travel to Arizona for a March 24 performance of Schubert’s “Winterreise” at the Dove of Peace Lutheran Church in Tucson.

“Winterreise,” based on 24 poems by German poet Wilhelm Müller, explores death and love through the metaphor of winter. Schubert was a big fan of Müller; he used his poetry as the basis for his other famous song cycle “Die schöne Müllerin.”

Proceeds from the performance will benefit the Tucson Interfaith AIDS/HIV Network.
