CASTALIAN STRING QUARTET
Konzerthaus Berlin, Kleiner Saal (Berlin)
13 children's dresses, hand-sewn from the life jackets of refugees, collected at the “Lifejacket Graveyard” in Lesvos, Greece: each dress represents one million of the 13 million children on the run worldwide. The installation “Ungrievable Lifes” by British artist Caroline Burraway inspired composer Charlotte Bray to create her work of the same name, which consists of 13 movements - one for each vest dress, one for each million refugee children. The young Castalian String Quartet premiered the work in 2023 and continues to include it in its program - as a reminder not to forget the fate of these children.
