In its discursive events, Beethovenfest Bonn 2023 is focusing on the question of »survival«. Human-caused destruction of the environment, the warming of the atmosphere and the resulting climate change threaten the foundations of our life, and we are responsible for changing it.
In a series of lectures and talks that will take place every Thursday (and on the opening weekend on Friday) in our festival headquarters Kreuzkirche, we will introduce some of the actors who are initiating this transformation – scientifically, journalistically, activistically and artistically.
Concrete concert projects will also be discussed. And concert introductions with experts and artists, post-event discussions, and live sessions with our festival podcast bee.contemporary also add a special touch to the festival.
Our festival headquarters will also be open for informal discussion after concerts. We’re looking forward to meeting you!
