SCHWEIGEN

A young artistic team presents selected chamber music, lieder and songs, exploring the culture of memory through music and performance. What legacy do we leave to future generations? What gets left unsaid? Which stories keep shaping us, even when they were never told?

For this year's edition of PODIUM Konzerte at Kloster Bebenhausen, PODIUM Esslingen has handed artistic responsibility to three young artists. Across four different concert formats, they express the perspectives and sensibilities of their generation in relation to the past - looking at the present and casting their gaze toward the future. The programme is curated by German-American mezzo-soprano Julika Hing, with Lara Jakobi (music educator, cellist) and Paul Ebert (musician, cultural manager) completing the leadership team.
