This musical performance draws inspiration from the correspondence between Albert Schweitzer and Hélène Bresslau from 1902 to 1912, chronicling their journey from friendship to love against the backdrop of their shared vision to build a hospital in Africa. Two actors bring this exchange to life, interwoven with the music of Schubert and Bach, performed by four singers and an accordionist. The production delves into the protagonists’ inner struggles, exploring the delicate balance between romantic affection and humanitarian commitment.
