Songwriter Festival 2020
Due to the current CORONA situation, we are already organizing a songwriter festival this year in order to support at least some of our musicians.
The artists performing in last year’s ‘open mic’ slots did an astonishing performance, demonstrating their enormous potential. Unfortunately, there are
precious few opportunities for showing their talent in this musical tradition.

50 Years of Woodstock
2019 marked the 50th anniversary of one of the most important events in modern music history: the Woodstock Festival. This event not only had a
lasting impact on the music scene, but also left a profound mark on the socio-economic landscape.
Developing our concept, it was not our goal to simply rehash the 1969 festival - an attempt which would naturally have been doomed from the very outset.
Instead, we reflected on how to give the memory of this event a worthy setting.

50 Shades of Woodstock
In the run-up of our ‘50 Years of Woodstock’ festival, we invited you to join us on a multimedia journey through 40 years of contemporary and music history!
What political and musical factors were dominant in the 1950s and 60s? What was their impact in the following decades?
Through images and music, we recall such events as the first successful test of a hydrogen bomb, the launch of Sputnik, and the rise of rock’n’roll
as the young generation’s new music genre in the 1950s. The division of Berlin, the race riots in the US, the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and most of all, the war in Vietnam -
all these issues dominated the political and social discourse in the 1960s. We naturally paid particular attention to the period between 1967 to 1969, which formed the immediate prehistory to Woodstock.
But the following two decades were also shaped by this period; political causes such as the peace movement or the fall of the Berlin Wall would probably
not have taken place without the history of the past two decades.

50 Jahre Summer of Revolution

information on the heyday of the flower power movement, accompanied by live music from the hippie generation.
