The new concert series KONTRAKLANG launches with fireworks from ensemble Zeitkratzer in Heimathafen Neukölln, with help from the wind instrument class of the Neuköllner Clay-Schule and trombonist Thomas Leyendecker from the Berliner Philharmonic Orchestra. Reinhold Friedl’s Schönberg Pierrot Lunaire-Parodie will sound as true as the original, premieres by Andrea Neumann and Frank Gratkowski will be presented, as well as a selection of Fluxus pieces that play on the borders of theatrical effects, minimalist notation and concentrated audience participation. To end the show, Thomas Leyendecker will lead the wind instrument class in the former ballroom’s balconies, in the collective orgiastic sound event of Stockhausens “Setz die Segel zur Sonne.”
With support of the education program of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra and Deutscher Musikrat.
