Ostracized songs then and now
Thursday, 02/20/2025 19:00 HfMT, Mendelssohn-Saal

In this recital, the artists will take you on a musical journey through works by ostracized composers. Reformed Judaism, which put down its first permanent roots in Hamburg in 1817, forms a historical backdrop. The award-winning duo Pia Davila (soprano) and Linda Leine (piano) dedicate the first part of the evening to songs that show impressive variety and depth despite difficult historical circumstances. In the second part of the evening, Johanna Backhaus and Anastasiia Shykyrinska, young artists from the HfMT Hamburg, will present the biographies of seven female composers whose lives and work were shaped by persecution under National Socialism. Enjoy an evening that combines music and history and brings the fates and works of these forgotten musicians back to life.
