About event
After six years of regular monthly evenings Hybrid Sessions, a new format is born - a two -day festival that will offer the most lively, most rebu thereom and foreign improvisation scene. They arise here and now - without a script, without guarantees, but with maximum commitment and joy. The evening will culminate in a joint performance of the trio with the participants of the workshop - whether on the scene or in the audience, you will experience something that will never be repeated.
The next day will offer an exclusive concert evening with guests from Poland and Austria. All performing meet on one stage where they create a new, unique sound together. The final networking evening will open up space to meet, share inspiration and possibly the birth of future projects. Suzuki)

20: 00-22: 00 Concert Contagious Trio (DE) + Workshopists (E.0 Hall) It connects three prominent personalities of experimental music - DJ and sound artist Mieko Suzuki, pianist Andrea Neumann and trumpeter Sabine Ercklentz - and creates an audio world in which the boundaries between instrument, electronics and composition are blurring. Electronic music, emphasizing the moment of surprises, immediate reactions and sonic depth. Neumann uses his hand -made "inner piano" ("Inside Piano"), whose feedback processes flow into the Suzuki effect system, which works with pre -prepared sounds, gramophone loops and live mixing. The same system is also involved in the live inputs of the Sabine Ercklentz pipes, whose fragmented signals add voltage and urgency sound. Music Contagious Trio is not just about sound-it's real-time communication, intuitive composition that never sounds twice as well.
