A musical reading: Of authors and women
7 p.m. on 28 October 2024 at the Haus der Universität (University House)
The Equal Opportunities Office of Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf cordially invites you to a musical reading: “Yes, women are dangerous creatures. I can tell you a story about that... Of authors and women”.
The first – unrequited – love, the relationship for life that turned out not to be after all, the mother, partners, girlfriends, patrons and affairs: from Heinrich Heine and Kurt Tucholsky to Erich Kästner and Bertolt Brecht, women play key roles in the lives of famous literary figures. Women define the books and biographies of authors, whether macho or mummy’s boy – or both: A musical reading. The theme never grows old and both the text of the reading, as well as poems set to music and performed in song bring new perspectives to light and to your ears.
After the event, we invite you to a networking session in the foyer.
Reading and concept: Dr Andreas Turnsek
Vocals: Stephanie-Marie Turnsek
Accordion and setting of the poems to music: Gudrun Salger M.A.
Violin: Jessica Goetz
This is a public event at the Haus der Universität.
