Banquet
First performance - 13, 15, 18, 20, 21 October 2023

Banquet

Based on Plato's "Symposion", BANQUET attempts a reinterpretation of ancient Greek social practice and the themes negotiated in it. In a feminist ritual, we want to create communal utopias and proclaim a new age of love by singing, dancing, drinking and discussing together. BANQUET is an invitation to collective intoxication and a musical journey from baroque arias to Wagner and today's club sound.

Beta

Technical innovations have long since permeated all areas of life. The world premiere BETA illuminates the potential of digital tools, but also the risks posed by non-transparent data sets and the monetisation of private user data. In her composition, Dariya Maminova artfully interweaves genres, mixes live sound with complex electronics and repeatedly plays with the boundaries of our perception of analogue and digitally produced music.

Tischlereikonzerte

The selection of works and the dramaturgical conception of the Tischlereikonzerte are in the hands of the musicians of the orchestra. They are inspired by the new productions or revivals of the opera programme to create stimulating themes and unusual programmes that are unparalleled in their musical range in Berlin. From solo violin to songs to percussion ensembles, from Josquin Desprez to Mozart's "Ein musikalischer Spaß", Dvořák's American String Quartet to Shostakovich, Cage and Xenakis, everything is heard in the special atmosphere of the Tischlerei.
