On August 31st we are happy to be part of the opening of the month of contemporary music at the enigmatic venue Kühlhaus in Berlin !
This year’s Month of Contemporary Music will open on August 31 at the Kühlhaus with the festival »Intersecting Encounters«, which is dedicated to the intersections of composition, collective creation and improvisation. Dell-Lillinger-Westergaard, vocal artist Sofia Jernberg, the Sonar Quartet, pianist Tamara Stefanovich, the Trio Catch and members of the Zafraan Ensemble come together for this event. They will meet in a variety of configurations and explore the boundaries between composition and improvisation, between closed and open form, between instrumental and vocal music.
The programme combines new co-compositions and existing works by Berg, Bertrand, Chin, Dell, Ivičević, Jernberg, Lillinger, Odeh-Tamimi, Schönberg, Sonar, Stefanovich, Webern and Westergaard, among others. Additionally, the artists will give an insight into their collaboration in two short talks. In between and after the concerts, there will be time for dialogue, snacks and drinks in the spacious Kubus and in the courtyard of Kühlhaus Berlin.
