invited H.C. to create an inspiring musical and compositional co-operation.
Karen Thastum and Udo Erdenreich worked with H.C. on MasnedØ Fort
in the art project ìHULRUMî (cavity). |
MARILYN MAZUR
composer, percussionist.
We have invited M.M. due to her lively musical radiation. Her performances
on the international music scene are wide-ranging from Miles Davis to Jan
Gabarek and latest with her own project "See Song". We believe
that she will be the right person to take up the challenge of the particular
sounds and echoes of the location.
To Marilyn Mazur, music is something that's simply there. In favourable
moments she is a medium who receives the music, and she helps shape it to
fit it into her own fantasies and energies, as she describes it. Mazur
often tries to combine feelings in a way that's only possible in music.
Where pain and sorrow turn into something that's pleasant and stimulating
to listen to. The music is great and life-affirming. The listener is led
into a marvellous labyrinth, and when he returns he's full of new energy
and inspiration.
