On this memorable day, works will be performed that reflect the music of the Holocaust in a special way: the string trio by Gideon Klein, composed in the Theresienstadt ghetto nine days before his deportation to Auschwitz, the String Quartet No. 5 from 1945 by the Polish-Jewish composer Mieczysław Weinberg. And for the first time, the new work “Aus Geigen Stimmen” by Berthold Tuercke. Its subtitle “with 53 violins, 1 viola, 1 cello and mixed choir for the rescued ‘Violins of Hope’ of Amnon Weinstein” refers to the rescued instruments that the Israeli violin maker Weinstein collected from Holocaust victims. These original instruments will be played in our concert!

In the evening at the bar, someone tells great stories: Adventure, drama, entanglement, love, wisdom, humour. The radioeins storytelling lounge has been creating exactly this situation since 2023.

The literary radio format takes to the live stage, musically enhanced by the large symphony orchestra and suitable works from Gustav Mahler to Maria Herz (!). Virginia Woolf’s epic journey through time “Orlando” entangles us in historical gender roles and immortal music on the eve of International Women’s Day.
