Experience culture. Poetry Slam in Hamburg

Hamburg stands for art and culture through and through. And over the years, poetry slams have gained a firm place in Hamburg's cultural programme. Those who want to see young lyrical talents have the opportunity to do so in Hamburg almost every week. The young poet scene meets here regularly on stage to compete and inspire the audience. And with the "artistic duels", the city even has its own unofficial championship. Here, you'll find an overview of current events and the most frequent venues.

    St. Pauli Nachtmarkt

    St. Pauli Night Market – The weekly market in the heart of the Reeperbahn

    The St. Pauli Night Market is no ordinary weekly market. Located right in the heart of the Reeperbahn on Spielbudenplatz, its late opening hours reflect not only the unique atmosphere but also the general shopping habits of our time.

    This isn't just a place to do your weekly shopping at local shops; it's also a meeting point every Wednesday after work, where people gather to enjoy a delicious meal together. During the summer months, the container bars in the beer garden on Spielbudenplatz serve visitors refreshing drinks. And from April onwards, there are daily live concerts on the small stage. Best of all: admission is free!

    Symphoniker Hamburg / Chamber Concert

    What is the cello doing among the wind instruments? At the 6th chamber concert, eight wind players and one cellist will perform a program that sensitively combines different styles, instrumentations, and forms of expression. The concert opens with Andrey Rubtsov’s »Three Moods for Wind Quintet«, which explores the expressive range of wind instruments with contrasting characters and contemporary musical language. Heitor Villa-Lobos’ duo »Assobio a játo« alludes to a special flute playing technique (»jet whistle«) in its title. The intimate dialogue between flute and violoncello thrives on great rhythmic freedom and poetic lightness.

    Endre Szervánszky’s wind quintet captivates with its clear structures, striking rhythms, and concise musical language. The program concludes with Carl Reinecke’s Wind Octet in B-flat major—a late Romantic work of rich sonority and elegant form that brings together the wind instruments in a variety of combinations. The result is a program that spans the spectrum from contemporary character studies to chamber music dialogue to large-scale Romantic ensemble art.

    Susanne Barner flute

    Marc Renner oboe

    Frederik Virsik clarinet
