In the organizer's words:

In the years 1940-1945, a large number of famous Jewish composers and musicians in the Czech Republic were interned in the Terezín concentration camp. Almost all of them were murdered in Auschwitz. During the war, the composers and their compositions were misused as propaganda for the model Terezín concentration camp and later forgotten for a long time. This moderated concert by the Namu Ensemble gives a stage to the valuable works of these composers.

As part of the traveling exhibition at the Center for Art Bremen "gefährdet leben. Queer People 1933-1945", the Namu Ensemble would also like to highlight the stories of three queer musicians whose lives were deeply affected by the Holocaust:

The singer and clown Hambo, the cellist and conductor Frieda Belinfante and the cabaret artist Robert T. Odeman and their unimaginable, but also astonishing experiences will be explained in detail in the moderated program.

By and with the Namu Ensemble.

As part of the traveling exhibition "gefährdet leben. Queer people 1933-1945" (until March 15).

Free admission.
