Jürgen Saalmann live in Bielefeld

Experience Jürgen Saalmann live on April 16th

Jürgen Saalmann will perform at Movement Theater, Bielefeld on April 16, 2027. Saalmann’s musical work is generally described as experimental electronic music, often incorporating elements of ambient, drone, and microsound. His compositions frequently utilize field recordings and explore the textures of everyday sounds, processed and manipulated to create immersive and subtly shifting soundscapes. He is known for a focus on spatial audio experiences and a minimalist aesthetic.

Movement Theater Bielefeld opened in 1986 and functions as a multidisciplinary performance space. Originally conceived as a venue primarily for modern dance and physical theatre – hence the name – it has since broadened its programming to include concerts, performance art, theatre productions, and film screenings. The theater is notable for its flexible stage configuration allowing adaptation to diverse artistic needs. It is located within the Bunker Ulmenwall, a former civil defence bunker dating from the Cold War era; this architectural history influences the venue's unique atmosphere. The theater is operated by the city of Bielefeld and serves as an important cultural hub for both local artists and touring productions. It maintains a focus on supporting innovative and contemporary artistic expression.
