The program explores musical dialogues between France, Germany, and Central Europe in the twentieth century, in a context shaped by exile and cultural exchanges. From Wilhelm Walther to Berthold Hummel and Karlheinz Stockhausen, it compares works influenced by France with the aesthetic contrasts of the 1950s. It also pays tribute to Czech composer Vítězslava Kaprálová, who composed in Paris before dying prematurely in exile. Finally, the performance Simplement Hölderlin evokes the poet's journey to Bordeaux, extending this reflection on artistic exchanges between both banks of the Rhine.
On the program, works by Robert Christoph Bauer (*1986), Daniel Alvarado Bonilla (*1985), Claude Debussy (1862-1918), Bertold Hummel (1925-2002), Vitezslava Kaprálová (1915-1940), Karlheinz Stockhausen (1928-2007), Wilhelm Walther (1889-1940), and an ensemble performance by Daniel Galindo, Ema Katrovas, Amélie Lejosne, and a solo by Vittoria Quartararo.
