Classics for Peace 2017

Last Sunday it was the third year we did our "Classics for Peace" concert at Slesvigske Musikhus for the Lysfest (Festival of Light - really a celebration of the liberation from the German occupation on the 4th of May 1945 - now also a Festival for peace, freedom and reconciliation). We donate all income from the concert to Médecins Sans Frontières - Doctors without Borders. It's become a tradition for us, but we try to make it a bit new and different every year. 
People started arriving already an hour before the concert, and there was immediately a warm, buzzing and excited atmosphere around, and wine, coffee, tea and cake were sold, more on that further down. 
This year we were very lucky to get professor and Honorary President of the 
Federal Union of European Nationalities, Hans Heinrich Hansen, as guest speaker, and he held a beautiful and very moving speech on the subjects war, peace and reconciliation. He has experienced the war himself as a child, and especially the aftermath from the point of the German minority in Denmark, which was not easy. It is therefore  astonishing that the collaboration and mutual respect between the two minorities at the Danish/German border now sets an example for reconciliation between minorities in the rest of Europe. We thank Hans Heinrich Hansen very much for his contribution.
