Since the 19th century the German ‚Kunstlied‘ was a possibility to combine two emotional extremes: Love and ‚Todessehnsucht‘ (yearning for death). Annika Gerhards and Pauliina Tukiainen play different song cycles by Rihm, Schumann and Strauss, which are representative for this special combination of word and music.
