An evening between organ sound and clear word in the Monastery of Roggenburg
In the baroque hall of the Monastery Church of Roggenburg, a literarily-musical event of particular density unfolds on July 5, 2026: (Organ-)Sound and Word connects the sound world of the organ with the intellectual profile of Prof. Dr. Ursula Münch. The format is part of the Roggenburg Summer 2026 and relies on that rare tension in which music not only accompanies but atmospherically deepens the spoken word.
A cultural dialogue in the Rococo room
The Monastery Church is perfectly suited for such encounters. Its Rococo architecture, the spaciousness of the church hall, and the spiritual tradition of the monastery lend an impressive tranquility to the reading atmosphere. Here, an evening transforms into a literary experience in which language, resonance, and space merge into a dense cultural form.
Josef Still at the organ, Ursula Münch in words
At the organ is Josef Still, who, as a church musician and long-time cathedral organist, boasts extensive concert experience. The spoken word is brought forth by Prof. Dr. Ursula Münch, who, as a political scientist and director of the Academy for Political Education, reaches a wide audience from academia, culture, and the public sphere. This combination promises not just a mere succession of program points but a precisely staged encounter between musical interpretation and intellectual reflection.
Reading atmosphere with monastic depth
The uniqueness of this evening lies in the mix of intellectual concentration and sensual experience. The acoustics of the Monastery Church, the historical aura of the place, and the connection of organ and word create a framework that unites educational aspirations and emotional presence. Those who want to experience culture not just as consumers but in the space itself will find an evening here with high literary quality and strong cultural resonance.
