Thomas Hampson<br />

"If you love for beauty"<br />

Conversations with<br />

Clemens Prokop<br />

As one of the leading contemporary opera<br />

singers, the American baritone Thomas<br />

Hampson is a regular guest at leading international<br />

opera houses. He is also widely acclaimed<br />

as a concert singer who always carefully<br />

researches and compiles his programs<br />

about the German romantic lied and the<br />

American art song.<br />

He teaches at the Heidelberg Lied Academy<br />

of the music festival Heidelberger Frühling,<br />

at the Salzburg Festival and the Manhattan<br />

School of Music in New York.<br />

In this portrait, which consists of an autobiographical<br />

sketch and five theme-related<br />

conversations with Clemens Prokop, the artist<br />

and cosmopolitan talks for the first time in<br />

book format about his passion for music and<br />

his almost unlimited curiosity about the<br />

world.<br />

Over 100 photographs, some of which have<br />

never before been published, provide new<br />

insights into the stages of his personal and<br />

professional development.<br />

• featuring in part unpublished photos<br />

• the first book by the world-renowned<br />

singer<br />

• insights into lied singing by a cosmopolitan<br />

artist<br />
