An introduction is given by Caroline Jessen of the Leibniz Institute for Jewish History and Culture – Simon Dubnow, while cantor Assaf Levitin accompanies the evening musically at the piano with Naaman Wagner. The evening also commemorates the November pogroms of 1938 and Agnon's publisher Salman Schocken.
