Music Current: KLANK plays KLANK
Bremen-based quartet KLANK Musik Aktions Ensemble bring their mad, lucid logic to Dublin for the first time in a programme of works developed by the group.
KLANK have created their own sonic universe from a dizzying array of musical techniques and cultural approaches.
Whether using kitchen utensils, office equipment, children’s toys or tools from whatever workplace, KLANK is willing to declare almost everything a musical instrument. And in their brand of Klang-Aktionen (sound performances), they can make everything sing.
Performers:
Reinhart Hammerschmidt - double bass, stuff
Markus Markowski - electric guitar, stuff
Christoph Ogiermann - violin, voice, stuff
Tim Schomacker - everyday percussion, voice, stuff
This concert is part of MUSIC CURRENT 2017, a three-day festival of contemporary electronic music proudly presented by Dublin Sound Lab. More details at www.musiccurrent.ie.
