Hindemith Days 2024
For the 20th time, the Hindemith Institute Frankfurt, in cooperation with various cultural institutions in the region, is organising the Hindemith Days in honour of the Hanau-born composer Paul Hindemith, who had a lasting influence on Frankfurt's musical life, particularly in the 1920s, following his training at Dr. Hoch's Conservatory.
This year, the University of Music and Performing Arts Frankfurt (HfMDK), the Department of Culture of the City of Hanau, the Historical Museum Frankfurt and the Institute of Musicology at Goethe University have been enlisted as co-operation partners.
The patron of the Hindemith Days 2024 is Dr Ina Hartwig, Head of the Department of Culture and Science of the City of Frankfurt am Main.

On April 28, pianist Victor Nicoara will play a concert. The audience of "Frankfurt liest ein Buch" will hear piano works by two great composers of the 1920s: Paul Hindemith and Ferruccio Busoni, whose 100th anniversary of death will be commemorated in 2024.
