Tenor Paul Appleby Will Perform at Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center

The Concert Will Take Place on Tuesday, November 19, 2019, at Alice Tully Hall 

Celebrated and acclaimed Tenor Paul Appleby—who has long been admired for his emotional depth and vocal strength—will perform at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in late November of this year. 

His Tuesday, November 19, 2019, program will include Schumann’s Dichterliebe for Voice and Piano, Op. 48 as part of a concert titled 1891: Brahms’s Clarinet Quintet. The program will also include Schubert’s Fantasie in F minor for Piano, Four Hands, D. 940, Op. 102, and Brahms’s Quintet in B minor Clarinet, Two Violins, Viola, and Cello, Op. 115. 

Acclaimed Pianist Ken Noda will join Appleby in his interpretation of Dichterliebe. The remainder of the November 19, 2019, program will feature the masterful talent of big names like Artistic Director Wu Han, Violinists Aaron Boyd and Francisco Fullana, Violinist and Violist Yura Lee, Cellist Keith Robinson, and Clarinetist David Shifrin.

Appleby, a tenor praised for his range of expressivity, is one of the most sought-after voices of his generation. 

“[Paul’s] tenor is limpid and focused, but with a range of color unusual in an instrument so essentially lyric,” reports Opera New. “His singing is scrupulous and musical; the voice moves fluidly and accurately.” 

Appleby’s 2019-2020 season concert appearances will also include Mozart’s Mass in C Minor with the Cleveland Orchestra, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony with the San Diego Symphony, Mendelssohn’s Elijah with the Indianapolis Symphony, and works by Britten and Schubert with the Santa Fe Chamber Music Society.

The 1891: Brahms’s Clarinet Quintet program will begin at 7:30 PM, EDT, at the Alice Tully Hall in Lincoln Center on November 19, 2019. Ticket prices vary.
