When Texts Become Sound: Music and Literature in Hall 3
On Friday, June 19, 2026, KUNSTWERKHALLE3 in Duisburg's Hall 3 will open a space for a special author encounter between reading, music, and literary resonance. Under the title Music and Literature, texts by Berta von Suttner, Kaja Petrovskaj, and Navid Kermani will be connected with compositions by György Kurtág, Peter Eötvös, and Erwin Schulhoff to create a multifaceted cultural journalistic evening.
An Evening Between Language Art and Sound Space
The event does not focus on mere accompaniment but on a dialogue of the arts. Flutes and double bass carry the words, expand them, give them resonance and contour. Especially in the large factory hall, the atmosphere of a reading unfolds, where literature is not only read but physically experienced.
Literary Quality in Combination with Music
The selection of texts points to a wide literary horizon: peace ethics, political awareness, and poetic condensation meet modern sound languages. Thus, a literary experience is created that appeals to both culture enthusiasts and music lovers. The dramaturgy of the evening follows a clear idea: words receive space, music responds, and from both, an intense evening full of sensuality and intellectual tension grows.
The Venue: Industrial Charm with Cultural Depth
Hall 3 is located in the Craftmen's Courtyard Wanheimerort and belongs to those Duisburg locations where revitalization becomes visible. The former workshop hall of Kemper Wire Works offers an unusual environment with a lot of atmosphere. Limited parking spaces in front of the hall, as well as the location on Düsseldorfer Straße, shape the practical aspect of the visit, while the interior with its rough charm enhances the cultural character of the evening.
What Visitors Can Expect
Those coming to Music and Literature in KUNSTWERKHALLE3 will experience not a routine event but a carefully curated interplay of literature, chamber music, and contemporary artistic perception. Admission is free. Anyone wanting to discover Duisburg's creative scene in a special reading with musical depth should experience this date live.
