Music & Literature
No Christmas without storytelling! There are many authors who have provided us with enchanting Advent reading material. All we need now is someone who can bring it to life in an impressive way. The Festspiele MV have found their expert of the spoken word: Clemens von Ramin. This year he has selected cheerful, contemplative and ironic stories by authors such as Waggerl, Kästner, Kishon, Rilke and others. The young ensemble prizewinners of the Pacific Quintet will set the musical tone.
