Festspiel Favourites
Unexpected musical experiences and personal encounters are trademarks of the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The festival programme includes a broad range of series and »festivals within the festival«, where visitors can discover and focus on particular elements through a wide range of supplementary activities such as guided tours, listening experiments, artist talks and discussions over several days.
Promising young artists from all over the world present themselves in the series »Junge Elite« and »Bothmer-Musik«. The »Landpartie« invites you to a musical excursion to the countryside. And the »Grenzgänge« format takes you into the young jazz scene. Discover more about our various Festspiel elements here.
Five centuries of piano music
One musician, one instrument, 28 composers
One musician, one instrument, 28 composers: Festival prizewinner and jack-of-all-trades Kit Armstrong takes the audience on a journey back to the early heyday of music for keyboard instruments and from there through the eras back to the present day. Whether attending one or all five concerts presented by him - the world of piano literature opens up in a completely new way through the eyes of this curious and enthusiastic virtuoso.
