From Saarbrücken to Tel Aviv. The composer Tzvi Avni (*1927)
Tzvi Avni (*2.9.1927), honorary citizen of both his birthplace Saarbrücken and his later home Tel Aviv, is one of the most famous Israeli composers. Together with his parents he arrived there in 1935, fleeing from Nazi persecution. Now, at the age of 90, Tzvi Avni is still active in different fields: he is composing, teaching and building bridges between Israel and Germany. Gesharim (bridges) for two violins - one of Avni's key works - will be performed by Kolja Lessing and Holger Koch, in addition to solo pieces for violin, piano and clarinet.
