    OPENING culture salts 2024

    [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]One of the oldest forms of communication in the alpine world, the yodel, sounded out in a chorus of 1,000 voices to open the year 2024 in the city of Bad Ischl with Hubert von Goisern. Doris Uhlich presented her powder dance. Conchita Wurst, Camo & Krooked and fanfare blowers from the 23 communities of the European Capital of Culture region were just some of the artists who shaped the opening event. The open air performance with more than 5.000 guests was sonically structured by immersive sound installations and musical miniatures by Tilman Kanitz.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

    Übungen zur Verwunderung

    [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Übungen zur Verwunderung was a two-hour sound walk through the Museum Küppersmühle for Contemporary Art. It created dialogues with the exhibited artworks and played with the unique acoustic possibilities offered by the former industrial compound, which became an artwork in itself through the restoration work carried out by architects Herzog & de Meuron. The music, curated and collaged by Tilman Kanitz, spanned pieces such as Bach’s Violin Sonatas, contemporary music by Helmut Lachenmann, Milica Djordjević and anonymous music from the 14th century, as well as a version of John Cage’s Atlas Eclipticalis (1962).

    Clash

    [vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_wp_text][/vc_wp_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text]Clash de Cartier was an experimental music theatre and fashion show, commissioned by Cartier and art-directed by Tilman Kanitz. It was held at the Eissbach Studios in Munich. The audience was separated from the stage by a 30-by-8-metre transparent foil to keep the stage filled with fog and the audience space clear. Spectators experienced a dance and music performance that appeared and disappeared into the white clouds like ever-changing, blurred tableaux vivants. The music ranged from Purcell and Handel to contemporary pop and electronic music, including a premiere by Yello.
