Daniel Hope is one of the most versatile and important violinists of his generation. He is an internationally celebrated star who plays the great concert stages from Beijing to Berlin to New York – and who has a very special relationship with Lübeck. He studied here and garnered his first professional experience at the Schleswig-Holstein music festival. But his story is also one of flight and expulsion, of the search for a home and an identity. And, ultimately, the story of a happy ending. In 2016, the outstanding artist reached the peak of his career thus far – he was named musical director of the renowned Zurich Chamber Orchestra. For Daniel Hope, that also represents a connection to his personal dream of giving more space, and more importance, to the subject of music and exile. He sets off on an autobiographical journey of discovery.
