If you've ever found yourself wandering into the the world's tiefsten Felsengründe, then this is the episode for you! Ghostly lights, a worm, charcoal burning knowledge, a watery grave and more await you (and our traveller) in this diverse episode! Who knew discussing Irrlicht and Rast from Schubert's Winterreise could be such fun?!

What is Follow the Lieder?

Pianist and wacky song enthusiast Mandee Madrid-Sikich talks all things Lieder related (and not related!). Composers, poets, cultural contexts, piano settings, German romanticism - if it has to do with song, you better believe it's included in this podcast! Each episode covers a different song and is complete with special guest appearances and performances of the chosen songs.
You can find Mandee on Instagram @liedernerd and on You Tube as Mandee Madrid-Sikich.
