Joyce Bodig, director of concerts at the Frick, has a way of uncovering talents who come to dominate concert schedules a few years down the line. Ian Bostridge's first appearance there in 1998, singing Dichterliebe with demonic intensity, was a great event. Bodig's latest discovery is Christian Immler, who, on Sunday, will sing Dichterliebe along with songs of Eisler, Ravel, Rankl, and Wolf. A brief Schumann sound sample on the Frick website is very promising. It is certain at least to be an afternoon of good hair and cheekbones. Happy Thanksgiving, all.
