Hear and Now Festival 2026 - at various locations

Discover the sound world of Karol Szymanowski

The musicians invite you to share their enthousiasm, with focus on attention and curiosity. In 2026 the spotlight is directed to Karol Szymanowski, with his colourful and narrative compositions. The programme offers e.a. a theatrical evening around mythological themes (at the Orgelpark), a workshop on composition, a lunch concert, movies and romanticism, and a splahing final evening concert, with the HearAndNow Festival Orchestra playing.
