A festival kickoff with character
The series WordMusicTreasures 2026 arises from the summer initiative of Dialoge: Word & Music e.V. that has grown since 2020, which has developed from the earlier format Culture in the Parish Garden. In 2026, the concept will for the first time take place not only in the Christkönig Church but also in the city center for two weeks. The kultur.lokal.fürth will become a resonant gallery with concerts, public rehearsals, and exhibition elements around Hans Werner Henze.

Chamber music, word art, and open encounters
The kickoff is more than a classical concert: Michael Herrschel, Lorenz Trottmann, and Sirka Schwartz-Uppendieck will present a cross-section of the entire series. According to the organizers, questions and discussions between pieces are expressly encouraged - this is what shapes the special community character of this format. For visitors, this creates an accessible cultural experience with immediate closeness to the artists and plenty of room for musical discoveries.

The central location makes the evening particularly uncomplicated: no travel to a remote festival site, but culture right in the city - perfect for a relaxed, focused concert experience.
