Martina Gedeck

Recitation

"Umrahmt von Musik tritt Sprache klarer hervor, umrahmt von Sprache leuchtet Musik tiefer auf. Herz und Verstand werden in schönem, sich abwechselndem Gleichmaß angesprochen und belebt, kurz: Das eine gibt dem anderen eine Bühne."
Martina Gedeck, Concerti, September 2018
