A poetic walk between Baroque, city history, and sound

With Saint Michael, Stand by Us! the Brentano Theater invites you to a literary-musical encounter at one of the most impressive places in Bamberg. In front of the gate of Saint Michael, a walk will unfold on July 3, 2026 at 4:00 PM, connecting poems, stories, and Baroque sound colors into a fine total work of art.

When literature makes the place itself the narrator

The event does not simply guide through texts but through epochs. Archangels, monks, Baroque, and the city of Bamberg enter into a dialogue that extends from Gryphius to Goethe and Karl Valentin. This breadth gives the evening its special literary quality: sacred motifs, wit of language, and historical depth intertwine.

Recorder sounds as a counter-voice and resonance space

Simon Resatsch accompanies the texts with Baroque recorder sounds, thus opening a sonic resonance space that enriches the reading atmosphere. Not loud effects, but fine nuances characterize this literary experience. Those who bring open ears for linguistic art, rhythm, and cultural memory will experience an author-encounter in a broader sense: with the voices of German literary history.

Bamberg, Saint Michael, and the art of pausing

The venue on the Michelsberg carries the program in all its symbolic power. The historical surroundings, the steps in front of the church, and the view of Bamberg create an intimate atmosphere where literature, music, and place enhance each other. This is precisely the charm of this poetic-musical walk: it makes culture not abstract but immediately tangible.

Conclusion

Saint Michael, Stand by Us! promises an evening for literature lovers who want to experience linguistic art not only by listening but in space. Those who appreciate the combination of Baroque poetry, musical finesse, and historical backdrop should experience this date live.
