KunstFestSpiele Herrenhausen 2019

10th edition of the KunstFestSpiele Herrenhausen
10. – 26.05.2019

10 years of KunstFestSpiele Herrenhausen - the anniversary was duly celebrated with a birthday edition. New venues such as the Eilenriedehalle and the Faust Kulturzentrum, in addition to the Herrenhausen Gardens, provided space for production highlights by Peter Sellars, Gidon Kremer, Romeo Castellucci, Kate McIntosh, Rebecca Saunders and for the Frank Zappa concert by Ensemble Modern. As a birthday present, the KunstFestSpiele gave the audience a day with numerous performances with free admission. Many other artistic formats, such as the performance with live video by Agrupacíon Señor Serrano, or the silent film concert Fantômas by amiina enriched the 2019 edition of the festival. The DHC-Halle, close to the gardens, was also introduced as a new venue with the impressive work Giudizio.Possibilità.Essere by Romeo Castellucci. Feinkost Lampe again successfully curated several club concerts in the Festivalzelt at the entrance to the Gardens. After the new campus format was well received in the previous year, it was continued in cooperation with the Festival Theaterformen as Festivalcampus Niedersachsen.  This year, students from the disciplines of music, theater and art were again able to exchange ideas with artists and review the performances in workshops and discussions.
