Ireland is known for its nature with gently rolling hills, rugged cliffs and idyllic fishing harbors. The rain is also part of the Emerald Isle. But it is also the culture full of stories, myths and music that makes the island so extraordinary and interesting.
In the entertaining event "Ireland - A literary-musical cultural journey", Helge Stroemer and violinist Angelika Rusche-Göllnitz take a closer look at Irish literature and music.
The program is a combination of photo lecture, reading and live music with a selection of Irish instrumental pieces and songs. The literary works of James Joyce (Ulysses), Lady Augusta Gregory (The Great Book of Irish Myths and Legends) and Frank McCourt (My Mother's Ashes) will also be presented.
The duo is looking forward to presenting a special program with an Irish atmosphere. Angelika Rusche-Göllnitz has been playing the fiddle for over 40 years and is a much sought-after musician on the folk scene. The Hamburg native has had classical lessons and performed with various orchestras, chamber music groups, world and folk music bands. One of her musical specialties is Irish folk.
Helge Stroemer lives and works in Hamburg. He studied literature and has worked as a journalist and lyricist for over 30 years. At this event, he will also be playing guitar and singing songs such as "Dirty Old Town" and "Molly Malone".
Film and sound recordings as well as photos may be made at the event, and you agree to their subsequent use by attending the event.
