July 30 2021 Switzerland. Verbier Music Festival Mainstage. One eagerly awaited evening will be Daniel Hope’s Escape to Paradise [30 July]. The concert is centred around Hope’s extensive research into Jewish composers—among them Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Miklós Rózsa, Hanns Eisler and Franz Waxman to name a few—who fled fascist persecution to relocate to Los Angeles where they penned some of the 20th century’s most iconic film scores. Lawrence Power, Sheku Kanneh-Mason, Thomas Hampson and Julien Quentin bring this exciting project to life.

Expected is music from Ben-Hur, El Cid and Spellbound

Nov 28 2021 Christmas Cracker 2021 in Cologne. Evangelische Kirche Köln-Rath As every year, our Christmas crackers will take place in 2021. It goes without saying that in the year of the 100th birthday of Tobias van de Locht's mentor Sir Malcolm Arnold, the master's Christmas-themed music should not be missing. Whistle Down the Wind was already part of the very first Christmas Cracker in 2003, back then in the Bechstein Hall in the Düsseldorfer Stilwerk, and was last played at the Bonner Crackern 2015. After the great success of the 2nd cantata from Bach's Christmas Oratorio, we are now bringing the 1st cantata and solemn and triumphant music from Ben Hur and King of Kings, which also deals with the birth of Jesus. Another concert for the whole family!

Dec 31 2021 Germany ALFRIED KRUPP HALL · PHILHARMONIC ESSEN. If anyone knows about the great film musicians and composers in exile in Hollywood, it is violinist Daniel Hope. He dealt intensively with their biographies and buried himself passionately in archives. "There were the big stars who quickly became famous," he explains: Max Steiner, Erich Wolfgang Korngold or Miklós Rózsa. Kurt Weill, on the other hand, becomes a musical legend on Broadway. However, other careers are not so happy, and not everyone has a happy ending. "There is a lot of melancholy in the music of these emigrants and a lot of nostalgia." Hope, who has been closely associated with the Essen Philharmonic for many years, and Pumeza Matshikiza and Tom Gaebel combine their music for film and concert hall in this New Year's Eve concert to create a veritable fireworks display. The melodies and emotions in Cinemascope are in the best hands with film music expert Frank Strobel. He is the new chief conductor of the WDR Funkhausorchester.
