A Song With Georg Streuber

With the series »A Song With…« we present a digital music format created between April 2021 and November 2022. In collaboration with our principal conductor Gijs Leenaars, individual singers of the Rundfunkchor Berlin bring great Lieder to life—in the warm, intimate setting of the Orania.Berlin hotel. A musical experience that invites you to pause, listen, and marvel.

In the third episode, principal conductor Gijs Leenaars meets our bass Georg Streuber. Together, they present Richard Strauss’s »Lob des Leidens« (»Praise of Suffering«), set to a text by Adolf Friedrich Graf von Schack.
