Neujahrskonzert

The story of a soldier Concert in the White Hall of the New Palace in Stuttgart.

In 988, a unique document was rediscovered in the manuscript archive of the Prussian State Library in Berlin: the diary of Peter Hagendorf, whose life story is considered exemplary for the fate of the citizens during the Thirty Years' War (1618-48). Hagendorf wandered through Germany as a Landsknecht. His memoirs are the chronicle of a tragic odyssey over 25,000 kilometers across Germany, France and Italy. The concert accompanies Peter on a musical journey through wartime Europe. Music by Sophie Elisabeth von Braunschweig-Lüneburg, Heinrich Schütz, Samuel Scheidt, Johann Hildebrand and Matthias Weckmann
