<h3>Probleme mit der Wiedergabe von Videos</h3>Aufgrund von technischen Schwierigkeiten k&ouml;nnen Videos in unserer Mediathek zurzeit nicht wiedergegeben werden. Wir arbeiten an einer L&ouml;sung und bitten um Ihr Verst&auml;ndnis.

<h3>Hinweise zum Thema Nachhaltigkeit und Streaming</h3>Um Energie zu sparen und CO2-Emissionen zu verringern, sehen Sie sich Videos nach M&ouml;glichkeit nicht auf einem TV-Ger&auml;t oder gro&szlig;en Bildschirm, sondern auf dem Smartphone, dem Notebook oder dem Laptop an. Nutzen Sie zur Daten&uuml;bertragung lieber Ihr LAN-Kabel als eine Internetverbindung &uuml;ber Mobilfunk. Achten Sie beim Streamen von Videos auf die passende Bildqualit&auml;t: Wer die Aufl&ouml;sung etwas senkt, zum Beispiel auf 720p oder 480p, statt in voller HD-Aufl&ouml;sung zu schauen, verbraucht weniger Energie.

Stage designer Florian Lösche explains how he developed the stage for Mephisto.Authors: Kolja Hirdes and Jana Opper

Behind the Scenes: Mephisto

MaerzMusik welcomes you into a space where listening has long been a way of being together. This year’s edition unfoldslike a living organism – part sanctuary, part laboratory – holding us through a moment marked by uncertainty, rupture, and possibility. The festival’s works deal with the structures of the present, weaving a subtle but noticeable thread through the programme: sound teaches us new ways of living together, developing alternatives, and renewing our understanding of the world.

MaerzMusik 2026: Trailer

Questions of identity accompany us throughout our lives. They are closely tied to our sense of belonging. Who am I? How do others see me? What or whom do I belong to? And to what or whom do I wish to belong? Who or what can, must, or may I be? These questions and the search for oneself are explored through dance in this piece. The concept of one&rsquo;s own place serves as the central element of the choreography.

Jeffrey Goldberg &ndash; Journalist

Subtitles will be provided shortly

Jeffrey Goldberg is the editor in chief of The Atlantic, and the moderator of &lsquo;Washington Week with The Atlantic&rsquo; on PBS. Goldberg is the 15th person to serve as editor in chief in The Atlantic&rsquo;s 167-year history. Under Goldberg&rsquo;s leadership, The Atlantic has won the first three Pulitzer Prizes in its history and set new records for subscriptions. The Atlantic has also won the National Magazine Award for General Excellence, the highest honour bestowed by the magazine industry, for the past three years in a row.

Goldberg&rsquo;s most recent book, &lsquo;On Heroism&rsquo;, is an expansion of his explosive reporting about former President Donald Trump&rsquo;s contempt for and repeated disparagement of military service members &ndash; a story he broke four years ago. Goldberg is the recipient of numerous awards, including the National Magazine Award for Reporting, the Daniel Pearl Award for Reporting, the Overseas Press Club&rsquo;s award for human-rights reporting, and the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists Prize for best investigative reporter.
