Seine Musik klingt wie Puccini, wie Bernstein – und wie Filmmusik aus Hollywood. Kein Wunder: Aaron Zigman ist einer der berühmtesten Vertreter seiner Zunft. Er schrieb für US-Filme »Ohrwürmer« am Fließband. Das hört man auch in ›Émigré‹: An ›Romeo und Julia‹ gemahnend, erzählt das Oratorium von der Liebe zweier Menschen Ende der 1930er-Jahre im Exil in Shanghai, wo Tausende Jüdinnen und Juden Zuflucht fanden – ein triumphales, lebensbejahendes Werk. Nach dem großen Erfolg in Shanghai und New York spielt das DSO die Europäische Erstaufführung.

His music sounds like Giacomo Puccini, like Leonard Bernstein—and like Hollywood film scores. No wonder: Aaron Zigman is one of the most famous exponents of his craft. He has composed many catchy tunes for US movies; typically, his soundscapes have a highly dramatic intensity. You can hear that in ›Émigré‹ as well, a romantic love story during a tragic chapter in human history. Reminiscent of Romeo and Juliet, ›Émigré‹ tells of the love between two people in the late 1930s. 18,000 Jews fled Europe, and Shanghai provided refuge for them. This message, performed by a spectacular vocal ensemble, makes ›Émigré‹ a triumphant, life-affirming work. After major successes in Shanghai and New York, the DSO will perform the European premiere.
