The WE HOPE exhibition commenced with a mesmerizing solo performance by composer and pianist Akiko Inagawa, featuring works such as S. Barber’s „Adagio for Strings“, C. Debussy’s „Clair de Lune“, and „Daydream.“ Following the piano performance, the audience was treated to enchanting opera arias and songs, including F. Schubert’s „Gretchen am Spinnrad“, G.
