Short film on "Joram"

The special concert of the Jewish Week in Leipzig in July 2022 was a special and extremely impressive event for us ‒ we were allowed to perform the oratorio "Joram" by Paul Ben-Haim in the Gewandhaus (and the next day once again in the Händelhalle in Halle), as a Leipzig premiere and the fifth performance worldwide.

At that time we were able to welcome an ensemble from the Ukraine among us, which moved us very much.

The music and text are probably still in our ears and on our tongues!

Now a short film about the project has been made, with impressions from the rehearsals and the concert. We thank andersdrehen.de and Peermusic Classical GmbH for this.
