Curse(s) and Blessing: A Musical Day of Repentance and Prayer in Bochum

When the Evangelical City Church, the Pauluskirche, opens its doors on the Day of Repentance and Prayer, a space for reflection, prayer, and collective contemplation is created. The event Curse(s) and Blessing connects religious experience with musical expression and focuses on the tension fields of flight, hope, protection, and blessing.

Music as an Expression of Flight and Hope

The centerpiece is the work Curse(s) and Blessing, which traces the path of a flight in five stations. Texts by Pastor Andreas Mattke accompany the musical dramaturgy and provide a spiritual access to experiences of departure, uncertainty, and new hope.

Day of Repentance and Prayer as a Time of Reflection

The Day of Repentance and Prayer belongs in the evangelical tradition to the days of conversion, self-examination, and prayer. In this liturgical atmosphere, the theme of flight assumes a special depth: personal life paths, societal responsibility, and the search for peace relate to one another.

A Faith Experience in Pauluskirche

The clear architecture of the church, the tranquility of the space, and the shared listening create a concentrated spiritual atmosphere. Visitors experience a religious encounter where music, text, theology, and community come together. The program invites questioning familiar perspectives and discovering new hope.
