Description

Ania Vegry, soprano
Katarzyna Wasiak, piano

Soprano Ania Vegry returns to the Villa Seligmann with a message of love to Paris in a song duo with pianist Katarzyna Wasiak. The program is dominated by songs by the Polish composer and Auschwitz survivor Szymon Laks (1901-1983) and songs by Fryderyk Chopin (1810-1849). Both composers made Paris their adopted home, albeit in different circumstances. For both, Paris was a symbol of artistic and personal freedom. And yet the respective oeuvres resonate with a note of tristesse, a longing for a foreign homeland. The question of artistic and purely human migration as a departure into a foreign land, but also as a departure into the hope of reinvention and a new beginning, runs through Vegry and Wasiak’s choice of songs. The songs by the Polish-Jewish composer Ignace Strasfogel (1909-1994), who is also represented in the program, open up a further dimension. Rounded off with songs from the American-Jewish diaspora by George Gershwin (1898-1937) and Karol Rathaus (1895-1954), this program promises a special and profound treat in the gloomy month of November. With “Paris, mon amour”, Ania Vegry and Katarzyna Wasiak present their joint CD with songs by Szymon Laks for the first time in Hanover. The CD is a complete recording of Laks’ songs in French, Polish and Yiddish. It can be purchased at the event.


Tickets 23/15 (reduced 8) euros, available in the webshop, by e-mail to karten@villa-seligmann.de orby phone on 0511-844 887 200.
