More about the contributor

The KIRCH’KLANG (Churches’Sounds) Festival premiered in summer 2021 when the pandemic had aroused a joint longing for communion, beauty and consolation. Ever since, musicians, artists and intellectuals assembled by festival leader Martin Haselböck invite the audience to join their pilgrimage to ancient churches and historic venues in the Salzkammergut region. Taking sacred music as a starting point the festival’s summer programmes cross borders to evoke profound reflexions on past and present.
