SUMMARY:Brahms & Beethoven with Isabelle Faust
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday 2 June 2024 from 7.30pm BST\, BGA members are invited to listen to Brahms & Beethoven with Isabelle Faust at the Royal Festival Hall. You can use the promo code BEETHOVENVC to get 20% off your ticket when booking through the organiser’s website: https://philharmonia.co.uk/whats-on/brahms-beethoven-with-isabelle-faust/. This is a third-party event. Any enquiries should be addressed to the Royal Festival Hall. \nIn the words of this evening’s soloist Isabelle Faust\, Beethoven’s Violin Concerto is ‘one of the most beautiful and most important works of the violin repertoire.’ \nFaust and conductor Philippe Herreweghe are frequent collaborators\, both known for diving deep into the historical context and authentic interpretation of every piece they perform. From its intriguing opening timpani strokes to its exuberant dancing finale\, via a breathtakingly beautiful slow movement\, their committed and unshowy approach allows Beethoven’s mastery of his art to shine through. \nBrahms’s Fourth Symphony is the work of a composer at the top of his game. Brahms called it “my sad symphony”\, but this modest adjective belies the composer’s emotional range and consummate structural skill. His friend\, the critic Eduard Hanslick\, put it better: “It is like a dark well; the longer we look into it\, the more brightly the stars shine back.”

She was appointed as Minister for Climate Action in May 2024. \nOlaf Lies is a German politician of the Social Democratic Party (SPD). He was first elected to the Landtag of Lower Saxony in 2008.

SUMMARY:Jewish life in contemporary Germany
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday 13 June from 6pm BST  we are collaborating with the Leo Baeck Institute on a talk about Jewish life in contemporary Germany with Professor Dani Kranz. Germany is home to Europe’s third largest Jewish community. Yet surprisingly little is known about them. After the Shoah\, about 15\,000 German Jews returned to Germany or emerged from hiding. The growth of the Jewish population in Germany after 1945 was due entirely to immigration\, which is somewhat counter intuitive. Who are the Jews who live in contemporary Germany? How do they live out their Jewishness? What Jewish cultures did they bring with them\, and what kind of Jewish culture is forming in Germany? \nDani Kranz is the incumbent DAAD Humboldt chair at El Colegio de México\, Mexico City\, and an applied anthropologist and director of Two Foxes Consulting\, Germany and Israel. Her expertise covers migration\, integration\, ethnicity\, law\, state/stateliness\, political life\, organisations\, memory cultures and politics as well as cultural heritage. \nThis event is part of the lecture series Outsiders in German-Jewish History organised by the Leo Baeck Institute London in cooperation with the German Historical Institute London. More information here.
