SUMMARY:The Glyndebourne Émigrés
DESCRIPTION:Nils Grosch\, Professor of Musicology at the University of Salzburg\, Austria\, will give a talk to mark the publication by Clemson University Press (USA) and Liverpool University Press of The Glyndebourne Émigrés: Operatic Mobilities in Southern England\, 1934-1940\, an anthology of essays edited by Prof. Grosch and Beth Snyder and the first book to explore in depth the important but hitherto under-examined role played by the emigrés in the early years of Glyndebourne Opera. \nIt remains a little-known fact that despite the popular perception of Glyndebourne as representing the quintessence of Englishness\, it would almost certainly never have come into existence had it not been for the involvement of refugees from Nazi Europe – most notably Artistic Directors Fritz Busch and Carl Ebert\, and General Manager\, Rudolph Bing\, but also conductor Hans Oppenheim\, singers Irene Eisinger and Ina Souez\, and répétiteur Jani Strasser\, among others. \nIn its first years of existence\, the Glyndebourne Festival Opera set out to internationalize English opera culture\, both by attracting international artists and leading proponents of a new concept of opera production and by giving émigrés the chance to further hone skills developed in Central Europe and beyond. \nImage: book cover (detail) \nTo book\, click here.

SUMMARY:Crossed Wires\, Broken Lines: Ernst Schoen and Charlotte Wolff
DESCRIPTION:Professor Esther Leslie and Dr Sam Dolbear\, co-authors of the 2023 book Dissonant Waves: Ernst Schoen and Experimental Sound in the Twentieth Century\, will first talk about the life of Ernst Schoen (1894-1960)—poet\, composer\, radio programmer\, theorist\, and best friend of Walter Benjamin from childhood—as he moves between Frankfurt\, Berlin\, Paris\, and London. Through friendship and comradeship\, a position in state-backed radio\, imprisonment\, exile\, networking in a new country\, re-emigration\, ill-treatment\, neglect\, Schoen suffers the century and articulates its broken promises. \nSam Dolbear will then discuss his latest project\, on Charlotte Wolff (1897–1986)—a friend of Walter Benjamin\, Helen Grund and also Ernst Schoen⁠—a doctor who\, after fleeing Germany in 1933\, took up hand reading in Paris to make ends meet. She read the hands of anonymous members of certain professions—acrobats\, dancers\, and department-store managers—but also members of the surrealist and modernist avant-gardes of Paris and London: from Antonin Artaud to Romola Nijinsky to Marcel Duchamp to Virginia Woolf. His book Hand That Touch This Fortune Will:  A history and theory of hand reading (After Charlotte Wolff) is forthcoming with Ma Bibliothèque. \nSchoen and Wolff were friends in the early 1920s and both made it to London\, the former in 1933\, the latter in 1936. The session will address their differing experience of exiled life and their feelings about ‘returning’ to Germany after the end of the war – Schoen going back in 1947 on a BBC mission and\, permanently\, in 1951 and Wolff only twice\, for two short trips\, with great nervousness. \n  \nBooking link here

SUMMARY:Esther Simpson: The True Story of her Mission to Save Scholars from Hitler's Persecution
DESCRIPTION:  \nBorn in Leeds in 1903 to Russian-Jewish emigrants\, as a young woman Esther Sinovitch (Simpson from 1933) stood out academically and musically. With a first-class degree from Leeds University\, she initially worked as a secretary in Paris\, Vienna and Geneva. But when Hitler assumed power in 1933\, she took a job in London at the Academic Assistance Council\, newly set up to rescue displaced German scholars. Over more than five decades\, her work for the Academic Assistance Council and its successor\, the Society for the Protection of Science and Learning\, ensured refuge for thousands of displaced academics worldwide and had a profound impact on twentieth-century science\, philosophy\, philology\, architecture and art history. By the end of her life\, Esther could count among her ‘children’\, as she called them\, sixteen Nobel Prize winners\, eighteen Knights\, seventy-four fellows of the Royal Society and thirty-four fellows of the British Academy. Her ‘children’ also made a major contribution to Allied victory in World War Two. \nSurprisingly\, she has remained a largely unknown historical figure. John Eidinow’s book is a study of Esther Simpson: who she was and how she lived\, what moved her to take up and never to relinquish her calling\, her impact on the world\, and the historical context that helped shape her achievements. \nJohn Eidinow has published three books with his co-author David Edmonds: Wittgenstein’s Poker\, Bobby Fischer Goes to War and Rousseau’s Dog and a novel\, Innocence to Die For. He was a presenter/interviewer for BBC Radio 4 and World Service radio\, working in news and current affairs and making documentaries on historical and contemporary issues. \nThe session will be chaired by writer David Herman. \n  \nImage: book cover \n  \nBooking link here

SUMMARY:Rozsa's Wish and The Angel of Chomutov: Two New Works by Marilyn Herman
DESCRIPTION:Second generation composer Marilyn Herman will talk to founding director of Insiders/Outsiders Monica Bohm-Duchen and conductor Kǎrin Hendrickson about two brand new chamber works. One is entitled Rozsa’s Wish\, based on the last words of Marilyn’s grandmother\, Rachel Rozsa\, to her children before she was sent to the gas chamber in Auschwitz – ‘I have lived. Just that you should live.’  In Marilyn’s own words\, ‘my aunt related these words to me – in English (learned entirely from watching films!) in\, I now realise\, the Hebrew form (my aunt survived and lived in Israel after the War). It is in the Hungarian language\, and scored for mezzo\, harp (or piano)\, flute and strings.’ The other work is entitled The Angel of Chomutov\, in the Czech language\, scored for soprano\, French horn\, harp (or piano) and strings.  This pays tribute to the courage and compassion of a young Czech woman who risked and probably gave her life to hand Marilyn’s father a piece of bread\, when aged just fourteen\, he was on a death march from Buchenwald. \nThe event will include a screening of a video-recorded recital of these painfully beautiful works and involve other members of the composer’s family. \nTo book\, click here. \n  \nMarilyn Herman – Composer \nKarin Hendrickson – Conductor \nDenise Alonzo – Soprano \nSarah Castle – Mezzo soprano \nFabian van de Geest – French Horn \nAlyson Frazier – Flute \nAnne Denholm – Harp \nPhilippa Mo – 1st Violin \nVictoria Gill – 2nd Violin \nDaniel Sanxis – Viola \nTom Wraith – Cello \nToby Hughes – Double Bass \nEdita Brychta – Spoken Voice \n  \n  \nFor further information about Marilyn\, click here + Spotlight on: Marilyn Herman – Sound and Music \nand about Kǎrin\, click here. \n  \nTo find out more about the Jewish Museum and to donate\, click here.

SUMMARY:The Angel of Chomutov
DESCRIPTION:We very much regret that for technical reasons beyond our control\, the Marilyn Herman event scheduled for 6pm this evening (Monday 10 October) has had to be postponed.  \nSincere apologies for the short notice\, but rest assured that we’ll be in touch as soon as it’s been rescheduled. \n \n\nOn Monday 10 October at 6pm (postponed from 23 June)\, second generation composer Marilyn Herman will be in conversation with conductor Karin Hendrickson about her two recent compositions. One of them is Rozsa’s Wish\, based on the last words of Marilyn’s grandmother\, Rachel Rozsa\, to her children before she was sent to the gas chambers in Auschwitz. The other is The Angel of Chomutov\, and pays tribute to the courage and compassion of a young Czech woman who risked and probably gave her life to hand Marilyn’s father a piece of bread\, when aged fourteen\, he was on a death march from Buchenwald. The event will include excerpts from a video-recorded recital of these works. \nFor further information and to book\, click here. \nImage: The Angel of Chomutov

SUMMARY:Music and the Émigré Photographers: Companions in Creativity
DESCRIPTION:Jacqueline du Pré by Laelia Goehr (detail)\nOnline Event \n\nIt is a striking fact that a significant number of the photographers who found refuge in Britain in the 1930s started their professional lives as musicians and/or made a speciality of taking pictures of musicians and composers\, many of whom were personal friends. This event will not only reveal a rich array of musical images\, many of them less well-known than they ought to be\, but also evoke the deeply cultured milieu in which so many refugees from Nazism lived\, both in their countries of origin and in the UK. \nPhotographic historian Amanda Hopkinson will talk about her mother\, photographer Gerti Deutsch as well as fellow Austrian-born photographer and friend of Gerti\, Lotte Meitner-Graf. Cellist and photographer Julia Crockatt\, daughter of composer Alexander Goehr\, and granddaughter of conductor and composer Walter Goehr\, will talk about her photographer grandmother Laelia Goehr\, and picture editor and researcher\, (formerly at Getty Images)\, Leon Meyer will consider the work of Czech-born photographer Erich Auerbach. \nThe event will be chaired by singer and teacher at the Royal College of Music\, Nobert Meyn\, founder of Ensemble Émigré and the Music\, Migration and Mobility project. \n  \nThis event is held in partnership with Music\, Migration and Mobility \n  \nTo book\, click here.

We have been working with baritone singer Peter Brathwaite (originally from Cheetham) Israeli opera composer Na’ama Zisser and community composer and saxophonist Joe Steele for the past 6 months to bring to life the real life stories within our oral history collection\, highlighting the experience of those arriving in Cheetham having fled their home countries. \nYou will be able to hear these songs in different areas of the Henry Watson Music Library on the first floor of Manchester Central Library\, alongside some objects brought to Manchester by Jewish refugees. This musical installation will feature songs composed by the museum’s song-writing group\, ESOL students from Abraham Moss Adult Learning Centre and the poignant song ‘Lovesick’ by Na’ama Zisser performed by Peter Brathwaite. Come and experience a different way to honour the sacrifices made and the building of new lives in Cheetham. \nThe event is free and you are welcome to drop in from 4pm-5pm. A longer version of this work\, featuring new songs by Na’ama Zisser will be performed as part of our Festival of Belonging in March.
