Cäcilienkonzert 2023 "Die Kraft der Überzeugung/The Power of Conviction"

Anton Bruckner was a convinced believer in God, John Williams was convinced that he was not good enough as a composer for the film music to Schindler's List and Giacomo Puccini was enthusiastic about a technical innovation, electricity, and was also convinced of its future viability. But is the power of conviction always good or can it also be dangerous? Didn't the Holocaust also happen because there were too many convinced Nazis? Let's get to the bottom of it! We will venture on a journey together through the world of thought of the various forms of conviction, using what is probably the most suitable tool: music. You can look forward to a concert evening which, together with musical stories and tasty treats, will provide food for thought. A concert for mind and soul. It is the Cäcilienkonzert 2024 of the music band Zwölfmalgreien.
Conducted by Matthäus Crepaz, with connecting words by Martina Rabensteiner.
