Description

»Rhythm in Focus: Beethoven Orchester Bonn«

Our Fellowship artist Bernhard Schimpelsberger is driven by an inexhaustible curiosity about the world’s percussion instruments. For him, Barak Schmool has composed a musical journey around the world, to Indonesia, India, Tanzania, and Brazil. In addition, Dirk Kaftan and his orchestra interpret the »Symphonie fantastique«, a wild ride through an artist’s life story.

The Fellowship Programme is sponsored by the Ministry of Culture and Science of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia and the city of Bonn
