The Open Stage is an offer for experienced improvisers in music, dance and other arts. It provides the opportunity of monthly artistic explorations in varying adhoc ensembles. There are no restraints for playing, the performances emerge solely from mutual perception and (re)acting.

Listeners/spectators are welcome, too.

The dates until June 2020:
12.1. | 9.2. | 15.3. | 19.4. | 17.5. | 14.6.2020

John Cage said, “A sound is perceived as disturbing – unless you listen to it.”

R. Murray Schafer went even further in 1971 in his study The Tuning of the World and recognized the sounds of our everyday environment as essential for the well-being and even the health of human beings. To improve and stabilize the quality and balance of these regular consonances of soundscapes (sonic landscapes) is the main concern of the worldwide movement of “acoustic ecology”.

The explo-soundwalks are relaxed excursions into the varied “symphony of everyday life”. The group undertakes a listening journey through various interesting sounding places around the exploratorium.

The soundwalks take place before one of our concerts and will be scheduled so that all participants are back in the exploratorium right in time for listening to the concert.

Dates until June 2020:
Thu 16.1. | Fri 20.3. | Thu 14.5. | Thu 25.6.2020

The aura of the night inspires the collective playing: 60 minutes of group improvisation.

This improvisation meeting at a late hour is for everyone who likes to improvise together at night. Everyone is welcome – amateurs and professionals alike and all levels in between. We meet on time at 22.30 to set up and then start playing at 23.00 o’clock; the door is closed five minutes before. We play for one hour continuously, without interruption, without prior arrangements, concepts or attendant’s groupings. We let the music evolve and at the same time shape the arc of suspense resulting over the set period of time.

Kommende Termine (until June 2020)
