Expeditionskonzert mit Joana Mallwitz
After spherical soundscapes with overtone singing, Daphne Oram's ‘Still Point’ from 1948 can be heard, in which the sound of an orchestra is electronically processed live for the first time. Inspired by T.S. Eliot, she sets out in search of the ‘still point’ where past and future come together. Thanks to the young British-Persian composer and turntable artist Shiva Feshareki, her visionary work can be heard in Germany for the first time in 75 years. It is based on the then 23-year-old Oram's experiences as a radio technician under the glass dome of London's Royal Albert Hall during the bombing raids of the Second World War.
