Literary Summer Evening with Language Art, Music, and Fine Irony

In the open-air forum of the Ulm City Library, a special literary experience unfolds on July 1, 2026: Culture on Steps: Reading with Music “Scene Change”. Actress Sibylle Schleicher, opera singer Markus Francke, and pianist Alwina Meissner combine their own texts, pointed word art, and darkly humorous songs by Georg Kreisler into a lively author encounter between stage, literature, and music. Admission is free. ([kultur-in-ulm.de](https://www.kultur-in-ulm.de/veranstaltung/52414/))

Between Poetry and Laconicism

The evening thrives on contrasts. Poetic passages meet sharp-tongued miniatures, absurd thoughts collide with precisely set musical interludes. This is exactly what creates the reading atmosphere that not only entertains but also resonates literarily. The second edition of the Scene Change focuses on transitions, breaks, and rhythmic tension. ([kultur-in-ulm.de](https://www.kultur-in-ulm.de/veranstaltung/52414/))

Artistic Voices with Profile

Markus Francke has been engaged as a tenor at the Ulm Theatre since 2018. Sibylle Schleicher was part of the acting ensemble from 2001 to 2015 and now works independently as a writer. Alwina Meissner brings her experience as a long-time rehearsal pianist in music theater. This constellation gives the evening literary quality, scenic presence, and musical precision.
