Reason enough to look at him through the Kagelian lens. Together with the composer and interaction artist Bernhard K\u00f6nig, who was one of Kagel's last students, Ensemble Megaphon has developed a framework composition in a dialogue process that forms the \"red thread\" of the programme and throws anecdotal highlights on Kagel's life and work. The rest is improvisation ranging from \"very close to the original\" to a complete \"de-cage\" that runs counter to all of the master's intentions.<\/p>\n<em>\"Once, during the course of a gruelling three-week concert tour through Eastern Europe, Japan and Inner Mongolia, Kagel reached into his coat pocket with a grin after a ten-hour rehearsal and gave each musician in the twelve-piece ensemble a lemon sweet: a wonderful day for the musicians, which they talked about for a long time to come.\"<\/em><br \/>\n(From: Textbook Memento Mauro, Kagelfabel No. 9)\n<em>\"He felt it was a great injustice that he would have to die one day. And so he decided: If his own death was inevitable, then it should at least be the end of all music. Not a note should be heard after his death.\"<\/em><br \/>\n(From: Textbook Memento Mauro, Kagelfabel No. 13)\n<h2>Contributors<\/h2>\n<strong>Ensemble Megaphon<\/strong><br \/>\nLenka Zupkova, violin<br \/>\nMargit Kern, accordion<br \/>\nJonas Krause, percussion<br \/>\nSebastian Wendt, clarinet<br \/>\nAndre Bartetzki, Live Electronics<br \/>\nNegin Habibi, guitar<br \/>\nStefan Wiefel, Acting<br \/>\nDagmar Schmidt, room installation<br \/>\nKatja Krause, Assistant, Performer\n<strong>Guest artist\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nBernhard K\u00f6nig, commissioned composition, direction, concert moderation\n<h2>Sponsors<\/h2>\n<p>MWK Lower Saxony, Foundation of Lower Saxony, City of Hanover<\/p>\n<h2>Cooperation partner<\/h2>\n<p>Lower Saxony State Opera Hanover<\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tVideo\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/ofU5S-DJ4uE\/maxresdefault.jpg\" alt=\"youtube-video-thumbnail\"\/>\n\t\t<h2>\n\t\t\tPicture gallery\t<\/h2>","protected":false},"featured_media":1084,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"default","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":null,"stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":null,"header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":null,"astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"project_category":[15],"project_tag":[],"class_list":["post-1080","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project_category-projekte"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ensemble-megaphon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/1080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ensemble-megaphon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ensemble-megaphon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ensemble-megaphon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1084"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ensemble-megaphon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"project_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ensemble-megaphon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project_category?post=1080"},{"taxonomy":"project_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ensemble-megaphon.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project_tag?post=1080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
