NACHT DER MUSEEN IN THE WELTKULTUREN MUSEUM

Experience sounds in the Weltkulturen Museum

You can explore an interactive music station in the Weltkulturen Laboratory: Catherine Kontz's contemporary composition ‘Three Legs and a Wheel’ is based on a piano track that is improvised to on a bicycle. You can become active yourself and play on the bicycle.

The exhibition 'Soundsources' focuses on sounds, their cultural use and interpretations. Regular guided tours invite visitors to reflect on the significance of sounds in their own lives. These take place every hour on the hour between 7 pm and midnight with our cultural mediators. If you get hungry, the Jambo African Food catering stand will be happy to help.
