in German:
Kammermusikfestival Schloss Laudon 2012

 

The Castle Laudon Chamber Music Festival by the aron quartett is dedicated to performing selected works by composers who were persecuted by the Nazi regime: many of them had to emigrate and some were murdered in Nazi concentration camps. In 2012, banished music is on the program at every concert. Works by Erwin Schulhoff, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, Mieczyslaw Weinberg, Franz Mittler and Paul Hindemith will be performed. Before 1938, Franz Mittler was the piano accompanist for Karl Kraus in his legendary performances.
