The talk format of the Federal Government Commissioner for the Disabled, Jürgen Dusel, is entering the next round: After the successful last "Salon im Kleisthaus" with activist and author Raul Krauthausen, the next guest is an artist who has already played in the world's greatest concert halls. Our guest on Friday, November 29, 2024, this time in the Säälchen am Holzmarkt, is the exceptional horn player and author Felix Klieser. He is an exceptional artist in every respect. He took his first horn lessons at the age of 5 and became a junior student at the Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media at the age of 13. And he was the first horn player to play his instrument with his feet, as he was born without arms. In 2014, he won the Echo Klassik Prize in the category "Young Artist of the Year (Horn)" and in 2016 the Music Prize of the Association of German Concert Directors and the Leonard Bernstein Award. Today he plays in renowned orchestras and ensembles throughout Europe.
Jürgen Dusel talks to Felix Klieser about his biography, his personal book, what needs to improve for people with disabilities in art and culture and, of course, about music.Felix Klieser will give a taster of his book published in August " Imagine it doesn't work, but someone does - How we learn to be able to do more than we think." . In his book, he talks about how he fulfilled his dreams despite adverse circumstances, the incredible power that big goals can give and the principles, ideas and ways of thinking that helped him to implement change. Guests will also be given an exclusive insight into Klieser's musical brilliance. He will be accompanied on the grand piano by pianist Ron Huang.
The evening will be translated into plain language and sign language. With live audio description and subtitling.
