loud rooms

A musical dialogue in the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe Hamburg.

In an experimental sound project, students from the Hochschule für Musik und Theater (HfMT) and the Hochschule für bildende Künste (HFBK) explore the museum and its collections. The young musicians move through the exhibition spaces like museum guests. In doing so, they react to the rooms and objects with their artistic means of expression. They comment on the collections, capture atmospheres and moods and recreate them in the fleeting medium of sound. Along the way, they listen and respond to each other's playing, creating dialogues between the different spaces of the museum and activating the entire building. The museum visitors are invited to listen to the musical dialogues and have a multi-sensory experience of the collections with entirely new eyes and ears.

Performances: 2pm & 4pm Sunday 17th July 2022.
Documentary video coming soon.
