:unlimited Seufzer | BARBARA Ensemble

In the organizer's words:

Fancy early music combined with dance, techno or visual art? The :unlimited series by zamus: zentrum für alte musik köln combines the past with the present:

"Sighs" addresses the universal human expressive capacity of sighing in order to build a bridge between the past and the present, especially in view of the manifold crises that characterize our society today. The sigh is a symbol that transcends the boundaries of time and genre and encourages us to reflect on the continuity of human emotions. The ensemble detaches baroque arias from the usual concert practice, combines them with pop songs and thus places them in a contemporary social context. The audience is invited to move freely through the walk-through stage set in order to come into direct contact with the musicians and experience music in a new way.
