What happens with people who decide to leave their homeland and how can that be expressed in musical creation? Could composers like Yannis Konstadinidis, originating from Asia Minor, Croatian Boris Papandopulo, of a family with Greek origins and French composer Edouard Lalo of Spanish descent have anything in common?

 

The international duo of Danae Papamattheou-Matschke and her father, Uwe Matschke take us on an enchanting musical trip through works by composers, who lived and created away from their native land, inspired by the musical movements of their period and the culture of their host countries: Musical bridges between nations and cultures.
