The music theater "The Gap" creates a participatory, sensory space between the past, future, decline and renewal, and questions the collection and transmission of history(ies). The audience experiences a spatial journey through archiving, departure, and dissappearance. Music, video, and the performative handling of objects weave experiences into a whole, expressed in the final act by all musicians. "The Gap" encourages reflection on the past, future, and present.

VOCAL ACROBATICS - STIMME IN DER NEUEN MUSIK

Soundkaskaden, palatale Salti, Tierstimmen, Super*wo*man, Rock’n’Roll. In diesem - an der HfMT ganz neuen!- Seminar beschäftigten wir uns mit virtuos-circensischer zeitgenössischer Vokalakrobatik. Wir testeten uns durch die verschiedensten Gesangstechniken dieser Welt, vom Bulgarischen Frauenchorsingen über Beatboxen zu Growling. Unsere Ergebnisse zeigen wir an Hand ausgewählter Werke der aktuellen Musik, darunter Klassiker und Neuheiten.
Werke für Stimme solo (John Cage: ARIA, Luciano Berio: Sequenza III per voce femminile), Duo mit Klavier (z.B. Katharina Rosenberger: E.E. Cummings Miniatures, Wolfgang von Schweinitz: Papiersterne (Auszüge) u.a.)

Aufzeichnungen eines Stimmlosen 
(no voice other than this pen...) 
Aus den Tagebuchaufzeichnungen von Mohammed al-Hamiri 

Die Komposition bezieht sich auf Gustav Mahlers Des Knaben Wunderhorns, „Lied des Verfolgtem im Turm“ (1898), dessen Ursprung wiederum auf dem Lied „Die Gedanken sind frei“ eines/einer unbekannten Verfasser*in des 18. Jahrhunderts gründet. Aufzeichnungen eines Stimmlosen wurde am 4. September 2020 an den Gustav Mahler Musikwochen in Toblach, Südtirol, durch das Vokalensemble Cantando Admont sowie Marco Sala (Bassklarinette), Mirko Jevtovic (Akkordeon) und Johannes Haase (Violine) uraufgeführt. 

In die Aktualität umgesetzt, thematisiert Aufzeichnungen eines Stimmlosen die unzulässigen Umstände von Verfolgungen und Freiheitsentzug von Menschen ohne richterliche Haftprüfung. Besonders in den USA sind Gefängnisse und kontroverse Inhaftierungen ein großes Thema und ein florierendes Geschäft. Mit den 9/11-Anschlägen in 2001 und sukzessiver politisch motivierter Propaganda zu Terroristenverfolgung und Angstmachung der Bevölkerung erlaubte sich die USA die rechtswidrige Internierung von hunderten von Menschen, welche teils bis heute in dem 2002 errichteten außerordentlichen Gefängnis Guantánamo festsitzen. Hier, unter unmenschlichen Bedingungen festgehalten, verloren die Gefangenen nicht nur ihre Freiheit, sondern auch ihre Stimme. 

Das Libretto besteht aus bearbeiteten Satzfragmenten von unterschiedlichen Berichten aus der Frankfurter Allgemeinen, Süddeutsche Zeitung, New York Times sowie von den Nachrichtensendern Al Jazeera und The Intercept. Letzterer veröffentlichte Ausschnitte aus den Tagebuchaufzeichnungen des jungen Jemeniten und Guantánamo Bay-Insasse Mohammed al-Hamiri*. In diesen Schriften und besonders in den Briefen an seine Mutter wird deutlich, dass den eingesperrten Terrorverdächtigen jegliche Rechte entzogen und viele ohne offizielle Anklage festgehalten wurden. Trotzdem lässt al-Hamiri seine Hoffnung nicht erdrücken. Seine Ausführungen sprechen von einer beispiellosen Stärke und Glauben auf ein Leben in Frieden und Glück. Al-Hamiri wurde 2015 nach 13 Jahren Gefangenschaft freigesprochen.

Redaktion: Florain Hauser

Die Intendantin des Festivals Sonic Matter heisst Katharina Rosenberger. Und sie kuratiert nicht nur, sondern ist auch selbst Komponistin. Heute macht sie sich über ihr Metier einige Gedanken: Komponieren, wie geht das eigentlich?

Da reifen Ideen wie Samenkörner im Kopf, bevor auch nur eine einzige Note aufs Papier geworfen wird. Da muss man/frau ausschneiden aus der Fülle von Möglichkeiten, die Vielfalt der Möglichkeiten auf fünf Notenlinien herunterbrechen, dann wird die Notenschrift selber zum Terrain der Reflexion Vielleicht. Vielleicht ist es aber auch ganz anders? Annäherungen an ein fast ungreifbares Phänomen.

Wdh. vom 15. April 2020

A conversation with Florian Hauser

The artistic director of the Sonic Matter festival is Katharina Rosenberger. And she not only curates, but is also a composer herself. Today she has some thoughts about her profession: Composing, how does that actually work?

Ideas ripen like seeds in the head before even a single note is thrown down on paper. You have to cut out of the abundance of possibilities, break down the variety of possibilities to five staves, then the musical notation itself becomes the terrain of reflection. But maybe it is also completely different? Approaches to an almost intangible phenomenon.

Neue Musik | Schichtungen, Texturen, Spuren

Die Komponistin Katharina Rosenberger

In den Werken der Schweizer Komponistin und Klangkünstlerin Katharina Rosenberger, die lange in Los Angeles gelebt hat und nun eine Professur an der Musikhochschule Lübeck bekleidet, schichten sich Geschichten. Texturen eröffnen Flächen und eine Fülle von Spuren führt uns archäologisch in die Tiefen des Klangs. 

Vorgestellt von Karl Ludwig

Die Kompositionen von Katharina Rosenberger (* 1971) versuchen, den Raum in der Musik zu öffnen: Durch spektrale Auffächerung des Klanginneren, in figuralen Beziehungen und kreisenden Formen quer zum musikalischen Zeitlauf, durch Einbindungen von Videos und der spezifischen Akustik der jeweiligen Architektur. Überdies durch die Integration von politischen, sozialen und persönlichen Schichten und Geschichten, die unser Leben, seine Beziehungen und Orte prägen. Diese Vielschichtigkeit lässt die Komplexität unserer Gegenwart ästhetisch erfahrbar werden und fordert zu einem Hören auf, das sich stets von Neuem in die Tiefenschichten des Klangs hineinwagt.

KATHARINA ROSENBERGER’S “tempi agitati”!

To texts by Petrarch

Neue Vocalsolisten Stuttgart
mode 334

https://moderecords.com/catalog/334rosenberger/
https://moderecords.bandcamp.com/.../tempi-agitati-mode-334

On April 6, 1327, a 22-year-old Italian poet named Francesco Petrarca caught a glimpse of a young woman, Laura, in a church in Avignon. He later reported that “living sparks issued from two lovely eyes”. Those sparks enflamed Petrarch such that he spent the rest of his illustrious career coming to terms with them.

Madrigals were developed in the 16th century by Adrian Willaert and Cipriano de Rore, which took Petrarch’s agonized images as justification for violating the rules that had guided musicians since before the beginnings of notated music.

Those living sparks have leapt ahead seven more centuries to inspire Katharina Rosenberger. Her “tempi agitati” embeds Petrarch’s texts (especially fragments from his “Ascent of Mount Ventoso”) and settings of sonnets by Willaert and Rore within her own responses to those materials.

In live performance, Rosenberger works together with stage-director Ludger Engels to distribute members of the ensemble, Neue Vocalsolisten, around the sound space; they dart around throughout the site, thereby embodying Petrarch’s “vive faville.” While a sound recording lacks the visual dimension crucial to Rosenberger’s concept, it allows the listener to attend much more closely to her rich tapestry of sonorities as she puts Petrarch’s 14th-century poetry and 16th-century madrigals into dialogue with her extended vocal techniques.

Sometimes the singers coalesce into whole polyphonic samples before returning to the extended vocal techniques from which they had emerged. Sometimes, finally, the madrigal itself appears, now intact. Rosenberger thereby simulates Petrarch’s struggle to put into coherent form his reactions to Laura’s glance.

Those living sparks have indeed inflamed thousands: Laura’s glance goaded Petrarch to the heights of formal perfection in his sonnets, and it led the madrigalists to imagine tonal worlds far beyond the stylistic precepts they had inherited. Finally, it has inspired Rosenberger to push voices to exceed the limitations of usual vocal technique, to offer simulations not only of those moments of Petrarch’s lucidity but also of those in which he grasped for the tools necessary for articulating the chaos that reigned relentlessly within him.

Complete Petrarch texts included. Liner notes by Susan McClary (English) and Thomas Meyer (German).

«Urban Morphologies Issue #21/09/Basel» – eine Konzertinstallation von Katharina Rosenberger (Komposition) und Betina Kuntzsch (Video), uraufgeführt vom ensemble mosaik


Drei Städte im Wandel. «Urban Morphologies Issue #21/09/Basel» handelt vom Verschwinden, von Sehnsüchten und vom Werden, von Utopie, Resistenz und Resilienz. Architektur für Geldanlagen, gespaltene Stadtviertel und rasanter Wandel, aber auch die Notwendigkeit für Dialoge und Austausch durch alle Gesellschaftsstrukturen sind die Konsequenzen. Die Herausforderungen sind überall dieselben. Die Auswahl Berlin – Los Angeles – Basel ergab sich durch die Zusammenarbeit der beteiligten Künstler*innen, die sie bewohnen, ihre Transformation miterleben und sich fragen, wie sehr dieser Wandel doch von ihnen mit zu verantworten ist?

In «Urban Morphologies Issue #21/09/Basel» begibt sich das Publikum zusammen mit den Künstler*innen auf eine audiovisuelle, kammermusikalische und installative Tour mit Indizien der Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und hypothetischer Zukunft dieser drei Städte. Dabei verwischen die Grenzen und es ist mitunter unklar, in welcher Stadt man sich gerade befindet. Einzelne Orte geraten ins Blickfeld, Parallelen und Verbindungspunkte tun sich auf, Erinnerungen und Fantasien verselbständigen sich. In Interviews und Rezitationen kommen lokale Bevölkerungen wie auch die Wissenschaft zu Wort, Klangwelten markanter Orte werden nachempfunden und weitergesponnen. Die Foto- und Videodokumentationen der sich wandelnden Städte und ihre Menschen gehen auf in dynamische Bildwelten.

«Urban Morphologies Issue #21/09/Berlin» – eine Konzertinstallation von Katharina Rosenberger (Komposition) und Betina Kuntzsch (Video), uraufgeführt vom ensemble mosaik


Drei Städte im Wandel. «Urban Morphologies Issue #21/09/Berlin» handelt vom Verschwinden, von Sehnsüchten und vom Werden, von Utopie, Resistenz und Resilienz. Architektur für Geldanlagen, gespaltene Stadtviertel und rasanter Wandel, aber auch die Notwendigkeit für Dialoge und Austausch durch alle Gesellschaftsstrukturen sind die Konsequenzen. Die Herausforderungen sind überall dieselben. Die Auswahl Berlin – Los Angeles – Basel ergab sich durch die Zusammenarbeit der beteiligten Künstler*innen, die sie bewohnen, ihre Transformation miterleben und sich fragen, wie sehr dieser Wandel doch von ihnen mit zu verantworten ist?

In «Urban Morphologies Issue #21/09/Berlin» begibt sich das Publikum zusammen mit den Künstler*innen auf eine audiovisuelle, kammermusikalische und installative Tour mit Indizien der Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und hypothetischer Zukunft dieser drei Städte. Dabei verwischen die Grenzen und es ist mitunter unklar, in welcher Stadt man sich gerade befindet. Einzelne Orte geraten ins Blickfeld, Parallelen und Verbindungspunkte tun sich auf, Erinnerungen und Fantasien verselbständigen sich. In Interviews und Rezitationen kommen lokale Bevölkerungen wie auch die Wissenschaft zu Wort, Klangwelten markanter Orte werden nachempfunden und weitergesponnen. Die Foto- und Videodokumentationen der sich wandelnden Städte und ihre Menschen gehen auf in dynamische Bildwelten.

«Urban Morphologies» ist der Auftakt in der Reihe «realities, places and displacements of places» im silent green. In den insgesamt vier Konzertabenden werden urbane Entwicklungen thematisiert und soziokulturelle Zusammenhänge hinterfragt.

as part of reConvert's "Lecture About Myself" by Kaj Duncan David

“Lecture About Myself” is a 30-minute audiovisual performative situation in which two musicians enter into a fictive dialogue with an artificial intelligence. The latter communicates via projected text and abstract video images. The former are seated at a table in front of the projection surface. With microphones, a vocoder, synthesizers and various controllers, they ‘speak’ a strange language that is only partly intelligible. Crucially, their vocal utterances are turned into control data that is used to feed various electronic sound and light processes. What results could be positioned somewhere between an uncanny conversation with an AI (parts of which are unintelligible) and a hallucinatory/phantasmagoric radio drama.

 

The Line (2007) video/sound art 

The Line (2007) denotes metaphorically the enigmatic path we walk down every day... at times known... at times bewildering; a given, marked by an ever-mutating configuration of events and encounters, parading against the steady backdrop of passing time.
Filmed, edited and produced spring 2007 in Brooklyn/Greenpoint by Katharina Rosenberger

as part of reConvert's "Lecture About Myself" by Kaj Duncan David

“Lecture About Myself” is a 30-minute audiovisual performative situation in which two musicians enter into a fictive dialogue with an artificial intelligence. The latter communicates via projected text and abstract video images. The former are seated at a table in front of the projection surface. With microphones, a vocoder, synthesizers and various controllers, they ‘speak’ a strange language that is only partly intelligible. Crucially, their vocal utterances are turned into control data that is used to feed various electronic sound and light processes. What results could be positioned somewhere between an uncanny conversation with an AI (parts of which are unintelligible) and a hallucinatory/phantasmagoric radio drama.

MEET THE ARTISTS

 / Stuttgart / Theaterhaus / Südseite-P2

Regisseur Ludger Engels und Komponistin Katharina Rosenberger geben Einsicht in die Arbeit an Ihrer neuen Installation, die in Zusammenarbeit mit den Neuen Vocalsolisten entstanden ist:

The Journey 
Klang- und Videoinstallation

mit den Neuen Vocalsolisten

Momo Lischker, Schnitt
Andrew Munsey, Ton

 

„The Journey“ basiert auf der szenischen Aufführung „tempi agitati“. Die Installation versteht sich nicht als Dokumentation, sondern spiegelt das Potenzial einer Live-Performance und damit von einem Geschehen mit autonomer Ausdruckskraft, die sich im Medium Video wiederfindet.

Auf drei Leinwänden und mit einem mehrkanaligen Raumklang wird die Unmittelbarkeit der Live-Performance und die Nähe von Publikum und Neuen Vocalsolisten neu ausgelotet sowie die Wahrnehmung von Raum und Zeit.

Die Installation nimmt Bezug auf die historische Relevanz der „cori spezzati“ und ihre großen Meister aus der Renaissance: Adrian Willaert und Cipriano de Rore. Zentrales literarisches Bild ist dabei Francesco Petrarcas beschwerliche Bergbesteigung des Mont Ventoux. Die Suche nach Zugehörigkeit, Einklang und Sinn seiner Existenz gewinnt durch die speziell für die Installation entwickelte Choreographie sowie Nah- und Detailaufnehmen an Intensität und Eindringlichkeit.

„The Journey“ zieht das Publikum in einen immersiven und sinnlichen Sog, inmitten der kraftvollen Stimmen der Neuen Vocalsolisten

Die Installation ist zugänglich in kleineren Gruppen von 8-10 Personen.
Die Künstler*innen sind vor Ort und ein Austausch mit dem Publikum wird angestrebt.

folds - an intermedia performance
folds - an intermedia performance

Location: National Sawdust, Brooklyn, New York, 7pm

World premier of "folds"

Acclaimed violinist Miranda Cuckson, composer Katharina Rosenberger and media artist John Burnett plot a sensory journey from the present to the past, engaging with the voices of other artists and bringing the ephemeral nature of sound and thought into dialogue with the tangible world. An array of paper objects — sculptures, manuscripts, scraps woven between the strings of the violin — highlights the importance of capturing the art and thought of past centuries. These traces of our physical world further serve as an impulse to reflect on our current dependency on the digital and virtual realms.

The performance takes as its starting point a cantata by the remarkable 17th–century composer/vocalist Barbara Strozzi, which is fragmented and dovetailed with Rosenberger’s audiovisual response. Ghostly projections and evocative electroacoustic sounds drawn from paper complement Cuckson’s expressive playing. The artists then “fold the page” and turn to the current era with an interpretation of recent music played and chosen by Cuckson herself to reflect further on the notation and transmission of ideas.

folds is generously supported by National Sawdust, and in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and the Foundation for Contemporary Arts Emergency Grant.
