“Speaking up or speaking art?”

A transatlantic discourse about the political dimension of art

The Musikfestival Heidelberger Frühling and Atlantik-Brücke analyze the imminent alienation within the western community of shared values – as an exception not from the perspective of politics but from art’s perspective. These are the Discussants:

Igor Levit, Pianist and Head of Kammermusik Akademie, Heidelberger Frühling
Dr. Clemens Trautmann, President, Deutsche Grammophon GmbH
und Thomas Hampson, Opera singer and Head of Lied Akademie, Heidelberger Frühling

Moderation: Dr. Sarah Tacke, Moderator and Correspondent, ZDF
