Sound Installation

Home

The final performance project reflects various consequences of the Corona pandemic. Most importantly, it is set to commemorate the victims of the pandemic and provide comfort to their loved ones. Both the Mozart and Brahms Requiems were chosen to reflect the circumstances of the Corona Pandemic, and music's potential to both acknowlege and comfort feelings of loss and lonliness - with two of the most enduring pieces for Choral Repertoire in the entire canon, and we trust that the music will shine through in even these unusual circumstances.

96 individual loudspeakers play individually recorded tracks in one of the many large churches/ concert venues in Münster. The audience can either walk through the sound installation and listen to individuals or stand in the back of the venue to get a concert-like impression of the Requiem. This setup is fit to follow all current Covid-regulations as spectators simply walk through the sound installation and can keep distance to one another but still share a moment of a joint musical experience.
