Aqua Sonata — Schloss Vietgest Festival

The premiere of Aqua Sonata on September 6, 2025, marked the start of a new open-air format in the Schloss Vietgest castle park. Soprano Stella Motina sang classical arias, songs, and jazz classics on the theme of water and summer — including "Summertime" from "Porgy & Bess," "La Habanera" from "Carmen," and pieces from Dvořák's "Rusalka." She was accompanied by a choreographed water and light show in the castle pond. Fixed seating was deliberately avoided: guests strolled through the park, gathering impressions from ever-new perspectives. The organizers were Miriam Hager (Schloss Vietgest) and the regional beverage partner Güstrower Schlossquell.
