performative concert with contemporary songs with Ensemble Megaphon<\/p>\nQuote from Claude Vivier:<\/strong> \"To perform on stage or not
\nBeing felt, not understood
\nLet sounds of others inspire your own
\nlet the music flow out of you as if you were a child.
\nNotation is only a reminder for certain conditions
\nnever follow the signs, but only their spirit.
\nDo what you feel you should do in this score and let others do the rest. \"Always be in love.\"\n

Lyrics to Jennifer Walshe \"A Folk Song Collection\"<\/h2>\n

The \"Folk song collections\" are two volumes with a total of 57 short to very short, unaccompanied folk and pop songs. The texts (in English) are a collection of statements, snippets of conversation and comments that the composer has picked up and collected in various public situations (caf\u00e9, underground, supermarket, etc.). The texts are mostly very everyday, sometimes vulgar, but in combination with the music they open up a subtle second layer and thus have a particularly touching, spontaneous and very contemporary effect.<\/p>\n
