The Accademia Filarmonica Romana is set to present a Lieder concert featuring soprano Anna Prohaska and pianist Julius Drake.

The concert is set to be held on Sept. 11 at the Sala Casella, via Flaminia 118 and will showcase the artists performing from their project “Paradise Lost,” which they also recorded on Alpha Classics.

The masterpiece by John Milton is the inspiration for the project and features works by Henry Purcell, George Crumb, Mahler, Rachmaninoff, and Bernstein.
