In addition to a rich program at the book fair and all over the city during the reading festival «Leipzig liest», there will also be a concert with the Haugtussa collective in Grieg Begegnungsstätte. Haugtussa by Arne Garborg will be performed by Martje Vande Ginste (song), Sebastian Jacob (piano), Juliane Hollerbach (storytelling) og Atischeh Braun (acting).
And we also look forward to starting the countdown to Norway’s being Guest of Honour at the Leipzig Book Fair in 2025.
