À propos de l'événement
About the composer Peter Ablinger:
“The sounds are not the sounds! They are there to distract the intellect and soothe the senses. Not even hearing is hearing: Listening is what creates me.” Peter Ablinger, born in 1959 in Schwanenstadt, Austria, is, as Christian Scheib once put it, a “mystic of the Enlightenment” whose “invocations and litanies are aimed at recognition”. At the same time, the composer, who - after studying graphic design - studied with Gösta Neuwirth and Roman Haubenstock-Ramati and has lived in Berlin since 1982, is a skeptic who is aware of the cultural rules and (bad) habits imposed by tradition: “So let's play on and say: the sounds are there to be heard (- not to be listened to. That's something else.). And listening is there to stop. That's all I know.” (Christian Baier) > to the text by Christian Scheib
