Barbara Lowin is Alma Mahler in Outrageous!

​

Date: Wednesday, March 26, 2025
Time: 6:00pm - 7:15pm

​

Join River Vale's own Barbara Lowin, assisted at the piano by Paul Greenwood, as she brings to life Alma Mahler (1879-1964), widow of titanic Austrian composer Gustav Mahler.

In a 75-minute performance with words and music, Barbara plays Alma Mahler in her final years as she holds court in her New York living room, recounting the story of her eventful life in brief monologues, punctuated with songs from the Viennese-Austrian repertoire, including works by composers such as Arnold Schoenberg, Friedrich Hollaender and even her own compositions. She reveals truths about passionate love affairs with painters Gustav Klimt and Oskar Kokoschka, and children born in and out of wedlock.
