For Imagine Heaven Lenka Župková, together with two other artists, has created the RESONANCES Concept Award won.
The concert Imagine Heaven is designed as a walk-in, meditative journey of sound and light. At various stations in and around the church, visitors experience music, sound, silence, meditation and community. It is a journey inwards and outwards - an invitation to rediscover the church space not only visually, but also sensually and spiritually. The musicians and choirs perform at different locations in the church and actively incorporate the architecture into the sound experience.
The performance is planned for May next year in St John's parish in Tostedt.
In Bremervörde (St. Liborius), the multi-instrumentalist and composer Vlady Bystrov will be performing with Sound visions of the revelation with a church performance for choir, electronics, brass, organ, images and movement dedicated to the Revelation of St John.
