Stage Director

There is nothing as captivating as a voice, like singing. With our voices, we tell stories and create art. As much as they touch us and enchant us, they can also carry the fractures and cracks that run through our lives. For personal experiences and societal conditions largely determine what can and should be sung. Which body sings a song? And what can opera be for us? Director Anselm Dalferth and his team explore the phenomenon of the voice that seduces us and can also break sometimes with two singers. The stage is set for a joyful tightrope act without a net and double bottom.

More beautiful than perfect

Theater Duisburg

Everything is completely quiet. There is no one around. Do humans hibernate, like hedgehogs? And why do they hide away? That’s what Miroslav, Maurice, Jakob, Christoph and Zufit are asking themselves. You too have been sitting in your rooms at home for far too long, getting incredibly bored. It’s so much nicer to play, run and jump around together – and sometimes even to argue.

Twinkle Concert L / Five wins!

Elbphilharmonie Hamburg

It grooves, rattles, swings and hisses. Musicians explore hidden worlds of sound. They discover music to which plants and animals also contribute. Playing with and against each other, they explore human characteristics. And from there they reach the strange world of machines and artificial intelligence (AI). What do people do there? And what does the sound installation "Robopercussion" want at the interface of art and research? Together with the audience, the ensemble feels its way through a fascinating world of rousing rhythms and surprising melodies in the field of tension between nature, man and machine. Strong emotions, automated processes, electronic extensions and the joy of playing combine in this concert to create a cosmos of its own: sound!

Sound!

Hunting Hall

Off on a journey of discovery! Bring your own imagination, grooving rain jackets, ringing biscuit tins and a singing wine glass. Five string players from the Ensemble Resonanz take you into very special worlds of sound and coax sounds out of tin cans, zippers and shoe boxes. A thrilling and humorous spectacle!
