At the heart of the Mensch, Musik! series is the goal of making orchestral music accessible to younger generations, both on stage and in the audience – this edition will be centred around Saul Williams’ and Thomas Kessler’s collaboration “said the shotgun to the head”, which explores patriarchy and the coming of a female messiah.
