Based on the historical/mythical figure of Belshazzar, Schumann's ballade Belsatzar was only the second song composed during the composer's famous "year of song." In today's episode, soprano Mimi Doulton shares her performance of Belsatzar with us and we discuss the cultural climate at the time, background on the history and mythology surrounding Belshazzar, and Mimi's experience performing the song as part of the Das Lied International Song Competition. With special guest pianist Mairi Harris Grewar.
