When Words Resound: Poetry Slam Meets Symphony Power
On Wednesday, November 25, 2026, the Great Hall of the Anneliese Brost Music Forum Ruhr in Bochum will transform into a special sound space: At BOSY Extra: Poetry in Concert, three slam poets will meet the Bochum Symphony Orchestra. The concert starts at 8:00 PM.
Language Becomes a Musical Impulse
This concert connects two performing arts that may seem opposite at first glance: the immediate energy of poetry slam and the orchestral precision of a symphony orchestra. Texts and music enter into an artistic dialogue, reflecting each other and questioning familiar listening habits.
Three Voices, One Symphonic Sound Space
With Theresa Sperling, Simeon Buss, and Luise Wolff, three prominent slam poets will be on stage. Their texts meet the colorful sound of the Bochum Symphony Orchestra conducted by Daniel Huppert. Marian Heuser will moderate and guide through the evening.
Audience Atmosphere with Competitive Character
The dramaturgy of the evening thrives on the direct reaction of the audience. Inspired by the music, new text perspectives emerge while the orchestration adds additional tension, dynamics, and emotional depth to the words. In the end, the audience makes the decision and awards the Golden Conductor's Baton.
Live Atmosphere at the Music Forum Ruhr
The Anneliese Brost Music Forum Ruhr provides the perfect setting for this unusual concert experience. In the Great Hall, clear acoustics, concentrated stage performance, and the special tension of a live competition come together. Between spoken rhythm, symphonic sound colors, and spontaneous audience atmosphere, an evening is created that appeals to both classical music fans and literature and poetry slam audiences.
Conclusion: An Evening of Concert Between Orchestra and Word Art
Poetry in Concert promises a cross-genre evening full of linguistic imagery, musical contrasts, and surprising turns. Those who want to experience how texts shine anew through symphonic sound colors should attend this BOSY Extra concert live at the Music Forum Ruhr.
