Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.

Looking forward to teaching an analysis class on the piano music of Maurice Ravel during the forthcoming summer semester at Robert Schumann Hochschule Düsseldorf. In addition, I will be speaking in a lecture concert on Ravel’s water-inspired compositions on Tuesday, 6 May, 7:30 pm, in the school’s chamber music hall, where I will share my thoughts on Jeux d’eau, Une barque sur l’océan, and Ondine. This is going to be an immense pleasure, and the more so if you could manage to come along! #ravel150 #imfluss

Excited to perform Giuseppe Verdi’s Messa da Requiem today with Vokalsystem, Enchore and Sibelius Orchester under the direction of Simon Rössler in the Philharmonie Berlin! The concert is sold out, but there will be a follow-up event for everybody interested: On February 15, 6 pm, you can join us for a singalong concert with the Requiem at Martin-Luther-Kirche, Berlin-Neukölln. Follow this link for tickets and further information.

Looking forward to participating in the annual conference of the Gesellschaft für Musiktheorie, hosted by the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg next weekend, 4–6 October. The promising line-up has a particular focus on paradigm chances in music theory, digitalisation and internationalisation in the post-pandemic era, and music theory scholarship in Chopin’s time and the fin de siècle. I will be contributing with a workshop on the possibilities and functionality of the Open Music Academy. See you in Cottbus soon!

Warm invitation to this summer’s performances of Vokalsystem Berlin! We are presenting an electronic choral concert programme named [ˈkʁiːzə] (crisis), featuring music by Claudio Monteverdi, Benjamin Britten, Melissa Dunphy, Caroline Shaw, Ted Hearne, Radiohead, and others. Johannes David Wolff and Artschi Loyan are already bursting with playfulness and creativity, and I’m sure it will be a blast. Tickets at €14 / €9 are still available for the events on Friday 12 July, 8 pm, or Saturday 13 July, 6 pm and 8 pm, at the former distillery Monopol Berlin (a really cool space for vocal performances, by the way). Please refer to this website to book your ticket.
