Love, happiness, passion, separation, and reconciliation - the lied genre played an important role in romantic music, and not a few transcriptions of the great virtuosos paid tribute to the song culture of high romanticism and paved its way to virtuoso presentation on the concert stage. In his latest recital, "On the Wings of Song," Claudius Tanski, a pianist who has been showered with numerous recording prizes, ranges over the sound spectrum extending from Mendelssohn through Schumann and Liszt to Gustav Mahler.
