Taldans’s new collaborative piece is like a fissure
in time, a series of reversible strands that add
up to form images or vistas, sounds, voices,
functions or processes.
It invites you to toy with the question where the
piece is going to head next, with its wordless
but powerful leaps, its disruptions and deficiencies
that are all part of an ostensibly seamless
whole.
The point of departure for this project is a series of
questions concerning (artistic and material) quality.
What decides the quality of artistic and material products?
Can a dysfunctional system maintain itself?
And what, come to think of it, do we understand by
function in the first place? Is it permissible to think of
choreography in terms of a system of functions? DATE

and voice resulted in enlarging the territory of the Hafenhalle09
body and in throwing light on the relationship between
inside and outside on several different levels. see page 58

On a visit to
jazzatelier
ulrichsberg
On day three of “Kaleidophon”, Urs Leimgruber
will present Six Plus One and Frode Gjerstad’s
Circulasione Totale Orchestra.
The ensemble Six Plus One will design and perform
a concert customized for the weaving workshop of
the Leitner linen weaving mill. While the six instrumentalists
will approach this theme in an improvised
and intuitive fashion, Thierry Simonot will prepare an
acoustic work at the Swiss sound laboratory Ameg.
A system of loudspeakers designed especially for
this room will add the “seventh instrument” for the
concert. Frode Gjerstad is among the pioneers of
Norwegian free jazz. The European Cultural Capital
2008 in Stavanger provided Gjerstad with an opportunity
to organise an electro-acoustic Big Band
according to his own wishes, which became the
Frode Gjerstad Circulasione Totale Orchestra. “The
Ulrichsberg Kaleidophon” provides a sequel to that
project with a slightly changed musical cast.

Music
Festival 4020:
Trio Accanto
The Swiss group Trio Accanto performs contemporary
Swiss music and a work by composer
Bernhard Lang from Linz.
Trio Accanto will interpret “Song Book” rendering an
estranged, broken echo of romantic music. “Song
Book” is a key work by composer Bernhard Lang
(born 1957), one of Austria’s internationally renowned
composers.
In addition to poems by Robert Creeley and experimental
texts by Dieter Sperl, Lang uses pop songs
as a point of departure for his compositions. He
shatters these songs into pieces and puts them
together anew; they are like fragments of a mirror
reflecting “the original as a multitude”.
A debut performance by Jens Joneleit and works
by the Vienna-based Swiss composer Beat Furrer
and Helmut Lachenmann supplement and offset
Lang’s cycle of songs with additional contemporary
interpretations.
