The message "Music for hope" accompanies the musician Aeham Ahmad at his performances. It brings destinies and people together. Raising awareness of this is also the idea behind the concert reading, which offers a form of encounter with and within music and words in which the audience is taken along. Stories are told with music and words.
In the new book "TAXI DAMASKUS" by Aeham Ahmad, which he wrote together with author Andreas Lukas, people in Syria are given a voice in their difficult everyday lives. Just as the musician and composer meets the audience as a human being among humans during his performances, the reader experiences the cab driver Ahmed with his stories from person to person. He devotes himself entirely to the stories of the passengers he transports in his cab. Sometimes he reflects on the situation in Syria, his own life as a cab driver and the difficult business. More often, he worries about whether he will still be able to feed his family tomorrow with his work.
