New Year's Eve concert Sophia Weidemann

Look forward to a musical and literary journey through time into the life of Fanny Hensel. She was the older sister of her famous brother Felix Mendelssohn and stood in his shadow throughout her life. Letters and diary entries penned by the composer, who remained undiscovered for so long, complement and expand the piano cycle "The Year". This large-scale cycle was written after a year-long journey through Italy, which had a great impact on Fanny Hensel. In the musical course of the year, you will hear textual images of Fanny Hensel's mood, which will bring you closer to the complex personality of this woman in around 70 minutes.
