Festival of New Music

Under the title ‘Resonance’, the festival explores how ‘hearing’ forges connections between people, between art and science, nature and technology, perception and insight.


For example, the LUX:NM ensemble is exploring the phenomena of dreams and sleep in its concert programme ‘On the Measurement of Sleep’.


The ensemble mosaik continues its musical exploration of the periodic table.

Festival highlights include Chiyoko Szlavnics’ large-scale *Oracles I–V* (listening spaces) with the EnsembleKollektiv Berlin, a tribute to Matthias Kaul by the Ensemble L’ART POUR L’ART, a late-night concert featuring this year’s DAAD scholarship holder Shasha Chen, and Morton Feldman’s four-hour work *For Philip Guston* to mark the 100th anniversary of his birth.


The 36th Klangwerkstatt Berlin – Festival for New Music will take place at the Kunstquartier Bethanien and at St Thomas’ Church in Kreuzberg.


There will be 18 exciting concerts featuring numerous world premieres, performances, family concerts, children’s and youth ensembles, and table music accompanied by light refreshments.
