Musik in Gedanken an die Schrecken des Krieges mit Musiker*innen des hr-Sinfonieorchesters aus fünf Ländern, deren Großväter im Zweiten Weltkrieg als Feinde gegenüberstanden und sich bekämpften – ein Konzert der Rückschau wie Vergegenwärtigung und Hoffnung! Mit seinem 8. Streichquartett hat der Russe Dmitrij Schostakowitsch 1960 den Opfern des Faschismus und des Krieges ein bewegendes musikalisches Denkmal gesetzt. Der Amerikaner Aaron Copland war während des Zweiten Weltkriegs vom Tod eines befreundeten Leutnants betroffen und er verarbeitete dies 1943 in seiner einzigen Violinsonate. In »Tenebrae« greift der rumänisch-israelische Komponist Osvaldo Golijov auf seine eigenen Erfahrungen zurück und stellt die Gewalt des Krieges neben die Ruhe eines Planetariums und die Hoffnung auf Frieden. Dazwischen zwei zeitgenössische Werke der Amerikanerin Jessie Montgomery und der Japanerin Michiru Oshimas, die die Gedanken des Friedens wie des Erinnerns aufgreifen und die Sinne öffnen.

Music reflecting on the horrors of war, performed by musicians from the hr-Symphony Orchestra from five countries whose grandfathers fought against each other in World War II – a concert of reflection, remembrance, and hope! With his String Quartet No. 8, the Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich created a moving musical monument to the victims of fascism and war in 1960. The American composer Aaron Copland was deeply affected by the death of a lieutenant friend during World War II, an experience he processed in his only violin sonata, written in 1943. In "Tenebrae," the Romanian-Israeli composer Osvaldo Golijov draws on his own experiences, juxtaposing the violence of war with the tranquility of a planetarium and the hope for peace. Interspersed are two contemporary works by the American composer Jessie Montgomery and the Japanese composer Michiru Oshimas, which explore themes of peace and remembrance, opening the senses to profound reflection.
