“Starshine…” – music between persecution, exile and emigration

Thursday, 23.06.2022
Dreifaltigkeitskirche Konstanz | 20h

Flight, persecution, exile and emigration are more relevant today than ever. It was precisely the terrible world wars of the 20th century and the trauma that still lingers on them that have left their mark on many generations of composers. Traditions and their conscious break, feelings of home, outcry or attempts at reconciliation characterize the works of composers such as Hindemith, Eisler, Weil, Schönberg, Bartók and others, who can be heard in the ensemble cantissimo’s project “Starshine…”.
