Kurt Tucholsky in Music

 Dear All! On February 12, 2026, the Kaufman Center presents a concert about fugitives from the Nazis, a very important topic, especially at this time. Your's truly will be there with books by Kurt Tucholsky and others. This is from the organizer:

"A revival of an acclaimed program last heard in 2008, the playlist includes songs from the concert stage, the movies, Broadway and Berlin’s cabarets, tracing the varied fates of the composers who faced destruction during Hitler’s rise to power. Some began new lives and brilliant careers abroad, others were to meet with darker ends. Featuring works by Kurt Weill, Franz Schreker, Alexander Zemlinsky, Friedrich Hollaender, Kurt Tucholsky, Erich Korngold, Hanns Eisler and many others. With baritone Gregory Feldmann and mezzo-soprano Kate Lindsey, and pianists Steven Blier and Bénédicte Jourdois."

Hope to see you there!
