Wednesday concert:

Michiko Ogawa – Sho and electronics

Michiko Ogawa will present an improvised set based on an in-progress solo piece composed in collaboration with Sam Dunscombe. The music is for sho and electronics and combines real time pitch detection, narrow band spectralism, psychoacoustics, and a simple quasi-pythagorean tuning system. What you will hear is a duo between Michiko’s shō and Sam’s Max programming, where the sound of the shō is spectrally augmented by the programming.

Heilbron/Lane/Dupleix/Rasten performs two pieces in just intonation, Poème d’air (2022) by Léo Dupleix and Fuse modulations (2020) by Fredrik Rasten:

5th session of ‘Neu Berlin Institute of Improvised Music’:At the celebrated Petersburg Artspace The I n s t i t u t e is hosting a new improvisational session. We welcome you!In this case the opening group will be:

Christopher Kunz – tenorJoel Grip – dblbassOlga Reznichenko – pianoDevin Gray – drums

After the opening group there will be put together sessions by the curator.Doors 20hConcert starts 20h30.Mission:By bringing together different practices of improvisation, we strive to open up the often isolated situation of music scenes to each other and prevent a structural conservatism that exists in the field of improvisation. We focus on connecting and learning from all different genres and subsidiaries. Encouraging people from different musical backgrounds and contexts to interact with each other and create a curated framework for immediate composition in a live setting. Because we believe that improvisation can mean lifelong musical learning, we want to view its ongoing practice and performance as an opportunity for the development of one’s “voice” and to create a regular offering for musicians* to keep trying themselves out in this laboratory and working community. We hope that in this way we can contribute to spreading this common respect for each other and the different approaches to improvisation in all of our respective “scenes” and enable fresh perspectives. The idea is not new, of course, but we want to perceive it anew. In our case we take the name away from an institution that was founded in Vienna in 2005 under the name ‘The Neu New York/Vienna Institute of Improvised Music’ by the now deceased saxophonist Marco Eneidi and still exists as ‘Monday Improvisers Session’ in Vienna.A warm invitation to you, if you feel addressed, and if you want to join this process as a listener!–MIIMKGraphic Design by Daphné Lejeune / https://lejeunedaphne.com/

Closing of the exhibition “At the foot of a face”Oil paintings and drawings by Joel Grip

Joel Grip – double bassHiroki Mano – tap dance

19:00Entrance in the courtyard, Aufgang II, 1OGcurated by Lena Czerniawska

Joel Grip pushes the act of being in between radical and familiar rooms of thought and encounter. In the making of images (let them be musical or drawn) he exerts a continuous flow of letting go allowing for the mysteries of love, swing and being to appear at the foot of the face of the other.

Joel has been drawing/painting his whole life as a way of gesticulating movement and language and to connect and communicate emotion. Many of his images have been used for announcing concerts and recordings (Au Topsi Pohl, Umlaut Records, Hagenfesten, Klub Demboh…). “At the foot of a face” is his first exhibition. You’ll see a selection of recent year’s oil painting and drawings. The section bears in mind and honors the recently passed away musician, artist and writer Tristan Honsinger. As a bassist, Joel Grip is active in groups reimagining and celebrating collective music: [ahmed], Vaka, [ism], Oùat, Klub Demboh, Sapat, and small ensembles with Sven-Åke Johansson.

More info:Olaf Hochherz – half animal synthesizerhalf-animals are deliberate created occurrences, which resemble “nature”, or create a nature, or recreate “our” notion of nature. A result of a search that relates to the connections between memories, things and sounding machines. A conjunction of a mimesis of the animals and mimetic machines – to let the computer sing, to let the machines mime the animals. A result of the cheeping of a feedback and the memory of the sounding of the environment, created to be observed, created by a blurry apparatus.A playing with the affection to things and animals: animal-voice-transmissions.

Murmur on an islandA boundless improvisation, much like an expedition in the jungle or murmurs on an unnamed island.

Johannes von Wrochem – ten-string guitarLan Hungh – percussionwinona Lin – piano

more info Rien VirguleNo one could have known if the band would have carried on after the loss of Jean-Marc, neither would have the remaining members, Anne, Mathias and Manuel. How can one overcome such an ordeal?

As life was flowing on the edges of grief, and as the three of them were playing together, a conclusion slowly revealed : a burning lifeblood between them, irrigating the grooves of their previous records, which fascinated every audience attending their concerts or – dare one say – their happenings. Rien Virgule was still alive. Then came the urge to go back to work and make a third record.

Unlike its title coming from a haiku (‘La Consolation des Violettes’, ie. ‘The Solace of Violets’), a radically short form of poetry, the album itself chooses to stretch its limbs, to free itself from the innate constraints of a simple LP, to spread its wings in order to attain an unprecedented stature.

While one can recite a haiku within a breath, the music of Rien Virgule unleashes a myriad of them. It is crafted by the different journeys of each of its members, who staggered in the corridors of experimental music for a long time before delivering a very personal vision of pop music, as White Noise did in their time.

One can understand the full extent of the band with the length of this record. Its perfectly blends, thanks to its almost scientific, precise sense of narration, some written pieces on which one can swear to hear the melodic curls of Robert Wyatt, and totally spontaneous jams. Those latter are cut then glued back so much, likewise Teo Macero’s work for the records of Miles Davis, that they tend to form fairy tales from a lab written with magnetic tape.

Jean-Marc, and his noisy DIY instrumentarium, gave its part of chaos to the other members of the band, who are keeping on making a clutter made of metal and broken glass resonate, as if they were sparks of life. ‘La Consolation des Violettes’ is a woven universe of travellings on the edge of ruin and poems drawn with a soldering iron, possessed with an impetus of visceral liberty, a vibrating and profoundly moving music.

SØVN Showcase
2023-09-28 20:00 - 23:30
SØVN records is proud to present a label showcase at PAS Berlin! The main guest will be Queimada, whose ‘Mi Piel’ EP came out in on SØVN last year – The Wire described his music as ‘an exploration of surface tension’, based on melted-down samples and field recordings.

Before him, two of the label’s founders, Guybrush and Andrea Bruera, will perform new forward-looking music lying at the extremes of the label’s sounds – from Guybrush’s deep, lush ambient textures to Andrea Bruera’s twisted, experimental take on reggaeton.

SØVN records is a music label focusing on small editions of avant-garde music. Moved by a DIY and down-to-earth ethos, they’ve been out there in the wild for more than six years, hand-crafting cassettes, CDs and bizarre music-related artifacts – ever heard of a cassette trapped in a shell made of concrete, or of a non-cassette? Their sounds cover a large ground, encompassing free-spirited ambient (Machinefabriek, Queimada, Guybrush), improvised stringed instruments (Asger Thomsen, Ido Bukelman, Giorgio Sarno), live-coding techno (Graham Dunning), electro-exotica (Tereshkova), percussive experiments (Blood Room, Dilian), electronica trips (Carlo Maria, Acid Fountain, Andrea Bruera). They’ve never had a proper home – and proudly so; now they’re currently split between Turin, Leipzig and Milan.

"УЕЗЖАЕТЕ? УЕЗЖАЙТЕ!" спектакль-концерт о последнем вечере на родине советского поэта Галича
2023-09-16 20:00 - 23:30, 2023-09-15 20:00 - 23:30
Спектакль-концерт о последнем вечере на родине советского поэта Александра Галича и о месте России в мире словами русских писателей и мыслителей 19-20 веков.

“…Галича смогли выгнать из страны, но не смогли выгнать из истории…”

В 2019 году в Москве в библиотеке СТД вышел спектакль театра “Мастерская Брусникина” и независимых продюсеров Марии Синицыной и Елены Каменской по стенограмме исключения Галича из Союза писателей. Режиссеры – Игорь Титов, он же исполнитель роли Галича, и Сергей Карабань. Автор – Андрей Стадников. Спектакль с аншлагами шел до 2022 года, был в лонг-листе “Золотой Маски”. В 2022 году часть труппы и авторов спектакля уехала из страны.

В 2023 году Игорь Титов и Андрей Стадников снова заходят на эту территорию и идут дальше. Новое высказывание – про прощание Галича с Советским Союзом. Жизнь Александра Галича, его непростая писательская судьба дают много поводов для раздумий и театрального воплощения его биографии. Будучи в свое время системным драматургом и сценаристом, он с течением времени переосмыслил советскую реальность в своих стихах и песнях, стал диссидентом. И как следствие – был вынужден уехать из страны.

Спектакль делится на 2 акта. Первый представляет собой очень вольную реконструкцию проводов Галича и его жены за границу, их последнего дня в России. Во втором акте мы соединяем в одном пространстве знаковых персон разных времен – мыслителей, поэтов, писателей. Шаламов, Астафьев, Летов, Чаадаев и Галич рассуждают и спорят о месте их страны в мире, как будто продолжая идущий в вечности диалог, никогда не прекращающийся, пока существует на планете такое место как Россия.

Спектакль проходит на русском языке с немецкими субтитрами.

Many of his images have been used for announcing concerts and recordings (Au Topsi Pohl, Umlaut Records, Hagenfesten, Klub Demboh…). “At the foot of a face” is his first exhibition. You’ll see a selection of recent year’s oil painting and drawings. The section bears in mind and honors the recently passed away musician, artist and writer Tristan Honsinger. As a bassist, Joel Grip is active in groups reimagining and celebrating collective music: [ahmed], Vaka, [ism], Oùat, Klub Demboh, Sapat, and small ensembles with Sven-Åke Johansson.
