Starlight in the Morning: Jean Paul in Musical Light
To commemorate the 200th anniversary of the poet Jean Paul, the St. Michael's Church in Hof invites you to a one-hour matinee. Under the motto If I Were a Star, delicate texts and contemporary compositions intersect with music from Jean Paul's era. Admission is free, and seating is limited in the historic main church.
Between Poetry and Score
The matinee combines literary miniatures with chamber music elegance. Two musical settings of Jean Paul by the city and deanery cantor Dr. Ludger Stühlmeyer are featured alongside music that the poet appreciated. The poem If I Were a Star will also be performed in a version for singing voice, violin, and piano.
Artistic Handwriting That Shines
The lineup promises a nuanced concert experience: Lea Stühlmeyer and Stephanie Rhaue (vocals), Lorenzo Lucca (violin), Vladimir Plakidin (piano), as well as the city and deanery cantors Dr. Ludger Stühlmeyer (piano) and KMD Georg Stanek (organ). Precise interplay, tonal balance, and sensitive conducting from within the ensemble create a dense live atmosphere.
Acoustics That Carry Words
St. Michael's Church provides a warm, resonant sound with natural orchestral breadth. The classical neo-Gothic architecture supports clear text comprehensibility and a transparent sound image; organ and strings merge in a fine synchronization of space and music.
Voices of the Fans
Reactions online are unequivocal: Jean Paul captivates his fans. On Instagram, one visitor writes: Can't wait for the matinee to experience Jean Paul's words as music. A YouTube comment on church music in Hof states: These concerts are so atmospheric, pure goosebumps.
Conclusion
This matinee celebrates Jean Paul with tonal colors between romance and the present. An hour of concentrated music, literary sparks, and the special audience atmosphere of a morning concert make the visit a memorable concert experience. Free admission, emotions included.
