KULTURMITTAG (ARTS AT LUNCHTIME) Sternschnuppen (Shooting Stars) – Katharina Stemberger and Wolfgang Panhofer

We hear a selection of tales concerning that annual round of madness which accompanies every Christmas – and which we would all like to escape; and also some moving texts about quiet and calm, which help us return to a space for true reflection and contemplation. With stories from Guy de Maupassant, Oscar Wilde, Erich Kästner and others, Katharina Stemberger invites us to have a look at Christmas from a different perspective.  Wolfgang Panhofer plays a strange yet beautiful selection of music on his cello, ranging from the classical to the tango.
