Witness the evocative power of Daniel Hope’s “astonishingly beautiful playing” (The Birmingham Mail) in a concert that pays tribute to Schulhoff and Weill, two great artists silenced under the Nazi regime. Inspired by the historical and personal significance this program holds for both Hope and Kahane — Daniel Hope’s family was forced to flee Nazi Berlin and Jeffrey Kahane’s grandfather was arrested on Kristallnacht — this performance celebrates the power of art to transcend adversity. The program includes: Schulhoff’s Double Concerto for Violin and Piano – arranged from the original for flute and piano by Daniel Hope; Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto in E minor (original 1844 version); and Weill’s Symphony No. 2.
