about

What is the essence, what life is in and behind a folk song? In their selection of songs, Bernd Wegener (percussionist, sound artist), Stefan Zintel (composer, sound designer, label owner) and Jan Paul Werge (singer, composer, performer) set about sifting through melodies and lyrics, dissecting tone sequences and rhythms. They dive in, take structures apart, reassemble them and in this way inevitably become part of a folk song themselves. They embark on a journey to its origin and essence.
Humming, singing, murmuring or snapping, chirping and groaning, sounds, syllables and word fragments are extracted from well-known German folk songs. Shaken, turned and moved, spinning tops, balloons, bells, whistles, wooden sticks, ping-pong balls and much more dance on a table.
A cosmos of sounds is created, a sound event and dialogue, which is electronically processed on a laptop with self-developed software and condensed into musical structures.
