Vielstimmig! – Konferenz zur Rolle von Musik für Regional- und Minderheitensprachen in Europa

In the organizer's words:

Europe thrives on its cultural and linguistic diversity. However, many regional and minority languages currently lead a shadowy existence in public perception. Yet Furlanic (Italy), Sámi (Finland) and Nedersaksisch (Netherlands), for example, have a diverse cultural life - not least in music. On October 25, 2025, the Regional Centre for Low German is therefore hosting a conference at the Bremen Center for the Arts dedicated to the potential of music for the visibility of regional and minority languages in Europe.

Keynote speeches on the importance of music for Furlanic, West Frisian, Nedersak, Sorbian and Low German will form the basis for plenary discussions and further exchange in small groups. The event is suitable for anyone interested in the linguistic and cultural diversity of Europe. Musicians in particular can make international contacts here and learn more about the status of regional and minority languages.

The conference will be followed by a concert by West Frisian singer Mayte Veenstra at 20:15. Please register for the conference and/or the concert via info@lzn-bremen.de.
