Programme:
»Übers Meer«: Texts by Ingeborg Bachmann, Charles Baudelaire, Arthur Rimbaud, Joachim Ringelnatz e.a., Musik von Claude Debussy, Erik Satie, Maurice Ravel, Arvo Pärt e.a.

Ulrich Matthes is one of Germany’s most recognisable actors. He has been a member of the Deutsches Theater Berlin for two decades and is a star of film and television. Thanks to his clear diction, he was also awarded the German Audio Book Prize in 2003 for his work as a voice actor. With »Übers Meer«, he and Ukrainian-German pianist Olena Kushpler have created a programme combining literature and music in which they follow the yearning for the sea that has inspired poets and composers time and again – all aboard!

HOW IT WORKS
Around the market square, nine venues will each host two 45-minute concerts in three time slots. All venues will have two shared intervals for spontaneous encounters and stimulating exchanges. Individual tickets can be booked for all events at a standard price of 30 euros, so you can choose for yourself whether you would like to attend one, two or three concerts to start off the festival!

Tickets: € 30 per concert (concessions € 24)
