On July 19, the first Hombroich : Wandel­kon­zert will take place at the Museum Insel Hombroich in coope­ra­tion with the neigh­boring conser­va­to­ries in Düssel­dorf and Cologne. From 11 am to 5:30 pm, seven of the walk-in sculp­tures designed by sculptor Erwin Heerich and scattered along the banks of the Erft River will serve as venues for a diverse and enter­tai­ning program.

The music ranges from Bach, Schubert, Brahms, and Poulenc to Kurtág, Berio, and Ligeti; from classical music to live elec­tro­nics; and from solo violin and flute, through piano trio and string quartet, to trombone ensemble and a poly­phonic choir performing Romantic choral music. In addition, there are perfor­ma­tive and dance-based contri­bu­tions as well as expe­ri­mental inter­ven­tions, some of which were developed speci­fi­cally for the respec­tive exhi­bi­tion buildings. Even classical music takes on an unusually different character in these spaces, simply because of their unique archi­tec­ture and acoustics. Each program lasts 30 minutes, followed by a 15-minute break. The audience moves freely through the museum from venue to venue, following their own interests. Those who need a break will find seating in the cafeteria throug­hout the day, as well as a simple buffet with food and drinks.

There are no addi­tional costs for visitors to attend the program, as it is already included in the admission price. Please note that most pavilions do not have seating. Tickets can be booked in advance at the shop.
