Liederabend presents two centuries of storytelling through voice and piano. Faculty of The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music join forces with special guests from the global jazz and voice programs for a spirited celebration of song, from the broadway standards of Richard Rodgers to the romantic songs of Franz Schubert. Narrated by Professor Joy H. Calico, Liederabend invites you to hear classic works reinterpreted and reimagined.
Faculty Artist Series – 21st Century Liederabend
This event is made possible by the David and Irmgard Dobrow Fund. Classical music was a passion of the Dobrows, who established a generous endowment at The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music to make programs like this possible. We are proud to celebrate this program as part of the 2025-26 Dobrow Series.
