A festival moment between music, film, and monastic silence

The 19th Music Film Days Oberaudorf present one of their most exciting program points on Saturday, July 11, 2026, with Hans Werner Henze – Composer, Communist, Dandy at Kloster Reisach. The documentary by Holger Preuße and Philipp Quiring will be shown at 1:30 PM and brings one of Germany's most political composers to the screen in an intense cinematic narrative. The festival will showcase a carefully curated music film program at several locations in Oberaudorf in 2026. ([musikfilmtage-oberaudorf.de](https://www.musikfilmtage-oberaudorf.de/programm/))

Henze as a projection surface of an entire era

Hans Werner Henze represents artistic friction, humanistic messages, and a body of work that continues to polarize and fascinate today. The documentary portrays him as a world citizen with a stance, whose music thrives on fractures as well as on great formal strength. It is this tension that makes the film so appealing in the festival context: here, music history meets political biography, archival material meets the present, analysis meets emotion.

A place with a special aura

The Kloster Reisach creates an atmosphere for the screening that cannot be staged: historic space, calm surroundings, and a setting that gives the concert experience of a special kind a contemplative depth. The venue is located in Oberaudorf, on the route between Rosenheim and Kufstein, and according to local information, offers free parking directly at the monastery. At the same time, the site, in its architectural situation, should not be understood as a classic high-gloss event space, but as a charismatic festival stage with its own history.
