8.09.26 / Alex Gabbay presents

A Place to be Ourselves
52 mins

Belonging can often mean giving up a little of who you are. A Place to Be Ourselves questions that trade-off, following eight people across Europe and Asia who challenge the idea that belonging requires conformity. From a poet and a blind musician to activists, artists and community-builders, each creates opportunities for strangers to become friends, where small acts of care quietly reshape the lives around them. Together, their stories suggest that belonging isn’t a passive accident — it’s something we actively create, one relationship at a time.

9.09.26 | Simon Rose and Axel Dörner in Concert
Simon Rose: ‘Of all the leading saxophones of today’s jazz, people will think naturally about Peter Brötzmann, Evan Parker, Joe McPhee, Ken Vandermark, Mats Gustafsson, but Simon Rose should be on this list too simply because of the quality of his playing.’ Stef, freejazzblog
Axel Dörner is one of the most unique voices in free improvisation. He developed a completely different language for the trumpet in the late 1990s. Most of the ensembles he is part of are characterized by a non-hierarchical collaboration of the musicians involved.

22.07./ OKNO#58
Chatschatur Kanajan, violin, prepared piano + electronics | Darlina Shader, Deep House/Ambiet

OKNO is an intermedia series project by the violinist and composer ChatschaturKanajan. At its heart are the interactions between the diverse sounds (piano, violin, 7-string electric violin, synthesisers, percussion, field recordings) and the predominantly black-and-grey graphics (Chinese ink, chalk, pigments) on paper.
Kanajan developed a set of rules for drawing, enabling it to emerge as an unconscious process in conjunction with the music. In this way, drawing becomes a musical instrument in its own right and follows the simplest compositional techniques such as imitation, counterpoint, unison, hoquetus, etc. It is both a graphic score and a seismograph of sounds.
Launched in 2015 as an intimate home-based laboratory, the project involved other musicians and artists from the outset, including Natalia Pschenitschnikova, Antonis Anisegos, Dan Peter Sundland, Mathis Mayr and Thomas Henriksson. See on youtu.be

A solo recital featuring Chatschatur Kanajan.
The programme will include music by Henry Purcell, J. S. Bach, Robert Schumann, Anoushka Shankar and Chatschatur Kanajan.
Violin, percussion, guitar and voice.
Between love and death lies a vast expanse of human experience: longing, devotion, loss, memory and transformation. In his new solo programme, Chatschatur Kanajan combines works from different centuries and cultures with his own compositions and improvisations.
Using the violin, percussion, guitar and voice, he creates a personal musical journey in which Baroque and contemporary music, composition and improvisation, and intimacy and expressiveness merge.
This is a concert about the fragility of life and the power of music to transcend the boundaries of time, language and memory.
