Curated by Jimmy Milanese. With the participation of Paolo Neri and Nicola Rispoli. Video greeting from Andreas Seppi.

The RIAS Chamber Choir Berlin under Kaspars Putnins presents the program Palestrina 500 – Pärt 90, combining works by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (born 500 years ago) with those of Arvo Pärt (born 90 years ago). Both composers are united by the fact that words are at the center of their work. The Missa Papae Marcelli is a masterpiece that, on the one hand, takes into account the intelligibility of the text, but on the other hand is so artfully crafted that it became stylistically influential for many subsequent mass settings. Pärt's works are compelling in their simplicity and have an almost mystical character. Kaspars Putnins, conductor Palestrina 500 –Pärt 90 Pärt “Solfeggio” Palestrina “Kyrie” Pärt “Nunc dimitis” Palestrina “Gloria” Pärt “Magnificat” Palestrina “Credo” Pärt “Dopo la vittoria” Palestrina “Sanctus, Benedictus” Pärt “The Woman with the Alabaster Box” Palestrina “Agnus Dei I & II”

When late November fills the air of Molini di Tures with the scent of roasted chestnuts and mulled wine, the Saint Catherine Market brings the village to life. The traditional fair transforms the streets into a scene of music, dance, craftsmanship, and regional flavours such as cheese, speck, and honey. Among the most popular delicacies are Melchamuis, a sweet, creamy blend of milk, flour, and butter, and Schöttina Kropfn, crispy fried pastries filled with poppy seeds or chestnuts. People meet, chat, laugh, and enjoy the festive atmosphere together. What is now a beloved village celebration has deep roots: as early as the 17th century, farmers and craftsmen gathered here to sell their goods. Even today, the reading of the ancient market decree in Benjamin Square brings the past to life – a moment when history can be felt and tradition continues to thrive.

How can cultural institutions or initiatives convert their social responsibility into effective, lasting impact – beyond symbolic gestures – in the face of accelerating ecological, social, and political transformations? And crucially: who participates in defining this mandate? These urgent questions lie at the heart of Culture as a Commons, a three-day international forum that brings together 12 selected cultural initiatives from the Netherlands and Italy. In the framework of this gathering at Museion, they will open up and share best practice strategies, visions, and formats beyond institutional boundaries, exploring culture as a common good – as a space of “commoning”. Rather than codifying fixed answers, the forum seeks to uncover both potential and limitations in current cultural work, through foregrounding experimental formats, porous collaborations, and gentle forms of activism. It encourages situated, responsive strategies to address challenges of social relevance, participation, and sustainability, including those raised in the 2022 redefinition of the museum by the International Council of Museums (ICOM). True to its spirit, this particular symposium represents a commons itself: it is participatory, publicly accessible, and invites cultural practitioners from diverse backgrounds – as well as everyone who sees culture as an inclusive and collective practice and a catalyst for social change – to engage, exchange, and reflect. The program will include not only discussions and workshops but also moments of shared experience, care, and wellbeing – dancing included.

The third album by the pop duo ANGER from Bressanone is perhaps their sweetest, most sensitive and fragile work to date. It is an album that speaks of love, nature and death. An album that moves between urban pop and living room recitals. Between folk, avant-garde, acoustic and electronic. Between high and low. ANGER – Julian Angerer and Nora Pider. Together with Fabian and Manuel Pichler, they present their new songs live as a quartet for the first time in South Tyrol. They return to a small theatre, a place where the closeness between the band and the audience is palpable. Where everything is authentic and handmade. Where it all began.

500 years ago, Michael Gaismair fought for justice and participation in the Tyrolean Peasants' War. Naturally, women also played a role in the course of events: many, including Magdalena Gaismair, actively and behind the scenes participated in the uprisings. However, in the relatively few sources from this period, women are scarcely mentioned. Already in the 16th century, what would later be repeatedly confirmed applied: in the struggle for freedom, equality, and "brotherhood," women often were left with nothing but housework. Director Michaela Senn and her team are developing a play about the gaps in historical records, the everyday struggle for equality, and the power of solidarity. The theater piece was created in cooperation with Vereinigte Bühnen Bozen and the local association Vigil Raber Kuratorium and is an event of "Mitmischen! Ma come?" – a project of the City and Multscher Museum of Vipiteno as part of the Euregio Museum Year 2025, funded by the Autonomous Province of Bolzano – South Tyrol, the Municipality of Vipiteno, and private sponsors. DATES AND TIMES 11/22 - 8:00 PM 11/23 - 6:00 PM 11/24 - 8:00 PM Cast: Margot Mayrhofer & Katrin Rabensteiner Direction & Concept: Michaela Senn Texts & Concept: Maria C.

At the Grieserhof in Bolzano, the St. Elisabeth Foundation presents the exhibition “Encounter with Nature”, dedicated to the artist Jette Christiansen. The initiative was born from the desire to create a space for dialogue between art, nature, and inner reflection — in line with the cultural and social commitment that has always characterized the Foundation.

The exhibition brings together works from the past ten years, in which the artist explores the deep connection between human beings and landscape, between matter and perception. With courage — and perhaps a touch of provocation — Jette Christiansen describes her oil paintings as “untimely.” As long as no one can clearly define what “contemporary” truly means, the call for permanent modernity remains suspended. Unconcerned with trends or debates in the current art scene, Christiansen continues to follow her creative path with consistency — one of silence, authenticity, and attentive observation.

The opening will be introduced by Christian Klotzner, President of the St. Elisabeth Foundation, with contributions from Leonhard Niedermair, Mathias Frei, and Thomas Mulser, Administrative Director of the Grieserhof. A refreshment reception will follow, offering a pleasant moment of exchange and conversation.

The Grieserhof, venue of the exhibition, stands as a symbol of openness, community, and dialogue — a place where art becomes a bridge and a means of human connection.

With our small autumn concert series, we would like to once again present the natural and emotional intelligence of music that is played and mostly composed by ourselves.

For the first time, there will also be an interdisciplinary dance concert, which – perhaps representative of all the music presented – bears the fitting title Earth Song: Hear the song of the earth and sing along! To make the autumnal world a little brighter and friendlier. We look forward to having you with us on our journey!
