Impulses for Pedagogical Work
Music: Jour fixe musical
Many children and youth were now spending time the Blue House, painting, researching, drawing and thinking.
On July 24, the Blue House hosted the president of the state parliament, Ms Muhterem Aras, and her staff, as well as Ms Sybille Thelen, head of the memorial department of the State Center for Political Education Baden-Württemberg in Stuttgart. During a memorial site tour, they learned about the ongoing work on site. The Association’s board took this opportunity to thank Aras and Thelen for their continuous financial support.
Starting in September, “Musical Rarities on the Subject of Persecution, Resistance, Exile” were the focus of a series of events called “Jour fixe musical.” The monthly program highlights composers, performers, poets and writers who had been persecuted by the Nazis and/or had resisted the regime. Dirk Nabering, long-time concert organizer and since 2017 honorary music curator at the Blue House, designed the series. The concerts were held regularly at the Blue House or the Spitalkirche Breisach.
