The spa town of Wiesbaden attracted composers to work and relax at the same time. Johannes Brahms, who lived in the Schönen Aussicht, is one of the prominent representatives. At that time there were also composers like Luise Langhans-Japha, Julie von Pfeilschifter, Luise Adolpha le Beau. The music of composers who worked and still work in Wiesbaden is offered a stage in this special concert. It also includes contemporary works by Paul Engel, James Peace, Angela Schwickert, Volker David Kirchner and Cornelius Hummel, among others. As a special rarity, the tango »Principessa« (1913) by Wiesbaden-born Heinz Lewin will be performed, for the first time in an arrangement for salon orchestra. The concert will be flanked by the book presentation: »Wiesbaden Composers: Destinies and Experiences« by district historian Carol Falling.
