Students present their current work. This is the plan for the upcoming collaboration concert with the Lübeck Academy of Music. Why in St. Petri? Not only is the church a university church, but it is also an exhibition space for international art. And the fact that works from the degree program "Improvisation - Composition - New Media" find a place there is more than justified.
Connecting music with dance has always been common practice, and on this evening, Lena Paetsch brings it up to date in "polymorph." But the connection with live painting (concept by Chiara Perneker) - here Sarah Proske as a drawer, an organist by profession - has been repeatedly reimagined since the 1960s and the Fluxus movement. Combining so-called "classical" musical instruments like the organ (Karin Lorenz) or violin, viola, cello (Azadeh Maghsoodi, Susanna Schwarzrock, Nora Strehmel, Anna Böhme, Candela Santamarina) with new sounds from synthesizers (Lennart Pries) and electric guitar (Tim Haas) often presents challenges; solving these and transforming them into beauty and insight is what our students aim to achieve.
The fact that the human voice (Charlotte Tenhagen) is the origin of music is explored through a melodrama; the flute, the oldest melody instrument, is represented by Imke Michaels on the transverse flute.
The archaic meets the futuristic. Image meets sound meets dance meets language. The halls of St. Petri provide the space for this fusion of tradition and modernity.
