Konzert Minimal

Band,
Classical

Konzert Minimal focuses on the music of the Wandelweiser collective and composers who share similar aesthetics and interests in the organisation of sound and silence as well as extending beyond conventional confinements and traditional hierarchy. As an ensemble of Berlin-based musicians, Konzert Minimal draws upon diverse yet focused collective experiences of its members, who come from various backgrounds of music; modern classical music, experimental and improvised music, sound art, conceptual performance and composition. Konzert Minimal was initiated by Johnny Chang and Koen Nutters in November 2010, since then the ensemble has appeared in the following venues and festivals: Labor Sonor, N.K., ausland, Studio 8, Relevant Musik festival (Berlin), Sonic Acts festival (Amsterdam), Cafe OTO (London). A key aspect of Konzert Minimal is ongoing co-operation and research with composers, with ongoing collaborations alongside composers such as Peter Ablinger, Antoine Beuger, Catherine Lamb, Radu Malfatti, Michael Pisaro and Manfred Werder. Camera Obscura/Lucida, a collaboration with french ensemble Dedalus to perform a specially commissioned work by composer Peter Ablinger is scheduled for Fall 2015.
