Aeham Ahmad & Andreas Lukas: Ankommen …!? KonzertLesung

In the organizer's words:

Aeham Ahmad is a Syrian-Palestinian pianist. In the Yarmouk refugee camp, he pushed his piano into the ruins on a board with wheels. He made it his mission to give hope with his music during this time. The picture went around the world. He later said: "When I played my piano in the streets of Syria to bring some joy to the people and perhaps give them a little comfort, I was aware that I was and could only be a small candle in all the darkness. But I didn't give up and kept playing. People listened to me and sang along." Hope was the only thing that remained.

Aeham Ahmad has now been living in Germany for several years. His life has changed fundamentally. He writes about this together with Andreas Lukas in "Ankommen ...!?" and gives personal insights into his current life and everyday life with all its beautiful aspects and difficulties in the new, unknown culture and society. However, his music, a mixture of modern classic jazz mix or world music, is also well received here and he succeeds in putting a smile on people's faces.
