The Other Side of Beethoven
Graham Johnson

(Generously loaned by the Hampsong Foundation)

Duration: 63 minutes

Graham Johnson Talks & the Hampsong Foundation: The illustrated talks by Graham Johnson on Beethoven and Poulenc have been generously loaned to this year’s SongFest by the Hampsong Foundation which commissioned, produced, and owns the features. They are permanently available for listening study among the copious recorded and textual materials housed on the Hampsong Foundation’s website, where they are integrated into the Foundation’s repository for high quality digital multimedia materials connecting classic song with history and culture. From the archives of select Salzburg Festival projects, to projects devoted entirely to the songs of Mahler and Schubert, to the expansive Song of America project, the site includes full concert programs, song texts and translations, essays, educational materials, radio programs, historic images, and selected audio and video recordings. You can watch vocal and instrumental master classes, listen to interviews and lectures, experience special events from your own computer—and so much more. The website is available in full for free to all visitors.
