Conductor Vimbayi Kaziboni

»This is the best music I can imagine for an extraordinary collection musical people. … Song as play, listening as touch and harmony like being alive in a body. It has some gay bits too, I like ‘em.« (Alex Paxton)

»Landscapes are now covered in diamonds, and humanity is covered in boredom. It is hot, it is dry, and it smells, but everything shines.« (Fernando Manassero)

Neue Vocalsolisten

Theo Nabicht, double bass clarinet

»Despite these manipulations, I believe memory cannot be fully erased; it endures in the hidden spaces of the mind and collective consciousness. … And even if a memory disappears completely, the heart retains something. A slight tremor or pain, some bit of joy, a tear.« (Elena Rykova)

Video performance by Uwe Rasch
for the children, Mrs S. and her helpers ^WP

Hoverboard riders: Volunteers from FSJ Kultur Baden-Württemberg

Neue Vocalsolisten

One song describes the problems of a mother/child relationship, a second relies on drug treatment to help a child recover. In the third, we learn about a »fabulous« resilience. In other words, the musical basis is formed by the songs Hänschen klein, Häschen in der Grube and Auf einem Baum ein Kuckuck saß.

Works by

Sara Glojnarić, Thomas Stiegler, Anda Kryeziu

Fabrik Quartet

Echtzeit Ensemble of the Stuttgart University of Music

Conductor Christof M Löser

»Between self-built instruments, extended instruments and amplification, I explore the subtleties of instrumentation, mould the sound to create very intimate soundscapes and develop structures that explode in instrumental playfulness.« (Anda Kryeziu)
