Fanny Hensel, Oratorium, Düsseldorfer Symphoniker
Tonhalle Düsseldorf Ehrenhof 1, Düsseldorf, DeutschlandIn 1831, four times as many people died in the Berlin cholera epidemic as in Corona's first year. Fanny Hensel was a great figure in the city's musical life and her cantata was a deep bow and a glimmer of hope at that time. It shows an exceptional talent who could not attain the rank of her brother only because of social norms. The concert programme will have achieved its goal when we can delete this movement.
