Neuer Kammerchor Berlin: Human Input

In the organizer's words:

Explorative choral concert on artificial intelligence

In this explorative concert, the award-winning Neue Kammerchor Berlin under the direction of Adrian Emans focuses on the creative possibilities and limits of artificial intelligence. At the center is a world premiere written by AI, which opens up new sound perspectives together with the choir and instruments. The program also includes works by Whitacre, Gottwald, Buchenberg and Hamilton, which deal with technical and social upheavals. Some of these works are intertwined and enriched with theremin, synthesizer, bass and percussion. This creates surprising timbres and new listening experiences. Before the concert, AI expert Alex Vaughan will give insights into the opportunities, limits and perspectives of AI in the music industry in a panel discussion. An evening that combines tradition, experiment and innovation in a unique way.
