re:start

The CHAPEL in Heidelberg's Südstadt district was chosen well in advance by members of the Festivalcampus as the venue of choice for a self-designed re:start concert. The atmospheric former American chapel has hosted several extremely popular concert evenings, made possible by the CHAPEL Raum für Stadtkultur e. V. and the commitment of the volunteers of the Heidelberg-Südstadt district association.
This year, the young British violist Connie Pharoah is presenting a very personal concert together with members of the Festivalcampus, with whom she shares a long-standing friendship. The program centers on her favorite book, *To the Lighthouse* by the exceptional British author Virginia Woolf, and a work by her favorite composer, Benjamin Britten. But this is not just about British culture; in Woolf’s story and Britten’s Second String Quartet, Connie Pharoah finds answers to the most fundamental questions of her own existence. She shares these thoughts, characters, and images with the audience during the concert and invites everyone to join her in exploring what stirs the soul when, in the distance out over the sea, the lighthouse’s beam sweeps back and forth.
The concert will be performed twice, at 18:30 and 21:00. After the performances, there will be an opportunity to talk to the musicians.
Free admission – donations are welcome
