37 - SUITES FOR A SUFFERING WORLD

Melting glaciers, desertified landscapes, flooded communities: climate change is having an alarming impact. The renowned cellist Tanja Tetzlaff travels to places in Europe where climate change has already become reality: surrounded by sometimes bizarre scenery, she performs Bach’s Cello Suites Nos. 4 and 5, contrasting them with works specially composed for her by Thorsten Encke. A moving musical and visual plea for greater care and humility toward the beauty of our planet.
