In the organizer's words:

🎶 Symphonisches Palais: music between war and exile

Members of the Düsseldorf Symphony Orchestra present a concert evening with works that deal with war, expulsion and flight. The music tells of experiences that have lost none of their topicality to this day.

Among the works to be heard is Igor Stravinsky's "L'Histoire du Soldat", in which the First World War reverberates. Béla Bartók's "Contrasts" was composed shortly before his emigration to the USA - as a reaction to the increasingly fascist climate in Europe. The Jewish composers Mieczysław Weinberg and Erich Wolfgang Korngold were also affected by persecution and had to leave their homeland.

An impressive concert about music as a testimony to contemporary history.

With:
🎻 Daniel Tauber (violin)
🎶 Philipp Vetter (clarinet)
