Inner exile: Karl Amadeus Hartmann.
In this episode of Harmonious, the music of Karl Amadeus Hartmann (1905–1963) takes centre stage. The programme traces his development from early chamber music to a large-scale symphonic work, written against the background of his self-chosen inner exile during and after the 1930s. With performances by Alina Ibragimova, the London Philharmonic Orchestra and the Bamberger Symphoniker.
