Donations to support the mensch.musik.festival are warmly welcomed.
Students at the University of Music in Münster regularly showcase their talents in numerous concerts both on and off campus. — Why yet another music festival?
• The experience our students gain as performers and organizers of a major festival production gives them an even better start to their artistic careers.
• Artistic exchange among students is greatly encouraged—across classes, disciplines, and genres.
• The intimate atmosphere of the mensch.musik.festival brings up-and-coming talents into particularly close contact with their audience.
• The “barrier-free” coexistence of classical training and popular music, which is a hallmark of the University of Music, is also evident at the mensch.musik.festival. This naturally opens the door for classical music fans to explore pop music—and vice versa—for pop fans to discover classical music.
• Once a year, the public experiences this diversity of musical teaching and creativity as a “total work of art” presented by the University of Music.
• For the University of Münster, the mensch.musik.festival serves as a showcase for its academic and artistic expertise far beyond the boundaries of the University of Music.
• The University of Music’s mensch.musik.festival represents a valuable enrichment of the cultural landscape in the city of Münster and the Münsterland region.
The following General Terms and Conditions apply to concerts of the mensch.musik.festivals organized by the Münster University of Music (Ludgeriplatz 1, 48151 Münster).
1. ADMISSION, ADMISSION AFTER THE START
Admission to the festival concerts is free. Admission to the concerts is granted without a ticket and without prior registration or seat reservations—simply on a first-come, first-served basis as long as seats are available. Attendees must leave the concert hall between concerts; seat reservations (such as by leaving jackets behind) are not permitted. Admission after the event has begun will take place during an appropriate intermission in the program, provided seats are still available. There is no entitlement to a specific seat; instead, seating is on a “first-come, first-served” basis. Some seats may have obstructed views. Technical setups may also obstruct the view.
2. CHANGES TO EVENTS
We reserve the right to make changes to the program or lineup. We apologize for any rescheduling or cancellation of an event. Expenses will not be reimbursed.
3. LIABILITY
Entry to the event grounds (Ludgeriplatz 1, 48151 Münster) is at your own risk. Claims for damages by visitors, regardless of the legal basis, are excluded. This does not apply where the organizer is liable under mandatory law, nor in cases of willful misconduct, gross negligence, injury to life, limb, or health, or breach of material contractual obligations. At concerts, the volume may pose a risk of hearing damage or other health hazards. The organizer is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
4. AUDIO, PHOTO, FILM, AND VIDEO RECORDINGS; VENUE RULES; SECURITY MEASURES
All audio, photo, film, and video recordings—including those for personal use—are prohibited. Violations will be prosecuted. The events will be recorded. The ticket holder agrees to this and to the possible depiction of his or her person. The organizer retains the right to exercise control over the premises during events. Visitors must comply with the instructions of the staff appointed by the organizer. Visitors who endanger themselves or others, or who disrupt the event, will be removed from the premises. Bringing glass containers, cans, plastic bottles, pyrotechnic items, torches, weapons, or weapon-like objects onto the event grounds is strictly prohibited.
