Issue 1_2/2023 - Focus "Departure"
"Awakening" or "renouveau" in French is the theme of the first issue in Harriet Messing's redesign. The articles in this issue explore the constant departure into new realms, as well as the question of what role music can play in times of social upheaval. The cover photo by Holger Jacob shows Mario Batkovic.
