nonsense when opposition was believed when we started out in one thousand and eighty two in the world seem to be a simpler place i'm fava tired of coffee there were the good guys and the bad guys on the sidelines of often we just flung ourselves into things and weren't even aware that we were part of such a historically important era and the guns playing to type draw. i was. in one nine hundred eighty six four years after their inception hosen played a now legendary gig at the home of politician aaron stalybridge a birthday present for his son bottles. formants descended into chaos and the hosts were not amused i was able to define but in i went from movie we really dug the

pete bald soldiers is a song written in one thousand nine hundred thirty three by prisoners in a german concentration camp in twenty seventeen teach the horse and perform three concerts with a robot schumann school of music and just featuring music that was banned under the nazis for these no fool. i woke up one night shortly before the performance and they looked i've been sleeping that lee anyhow for weeks because of the material involved then i realised we had to avoid sliding into over sentimentality . that was something we really wanted to avoid. the concerts will remind us of the dark past when the nazi regime branded seven artists and composers degenerate works by mendelssohn hindemith's called violin stravinsky was banned as were the comedian hominis it's. a good one you should not be coughed and was the first one we wanted to convey the music's beauty and power and that it survived and wasn't destroyed

going to be on the point. it was remarkably easy. compared to how i imagined it would be it was great and it's a few times for the common dogs this is called the common in. because i wasn't a big hit but it does express what tonight is about going for. the punk rock outfit song is twenty five years old but it's as relevant as ever a very special concert series in which he told me the symphony orchestra built a bridge between the past and the prison.
