Sven Helbig w/ ensemble reflektor SKILLS album release
 
Dear friends and music lovers,
Before we open our Kiezsalon season at Berlin's Zionskirche next month, we’re already looking forward to the premiere of German composer Sven Helbig’s new album SKILLS at this historic site on Easter Sunday, with the award-winning ensemble reflektor.
 
Sven's works have been performed by renowned artists like BBC SingersFauré Quartett, cellist Jan Vogler and conductor Kristjan Järvi. On stage, Sven performs live-electronics and percussion alongside with the ensemble. Find out more about Sven and listen to his new music.
 
Booker Stardrum
 
Unfortunately, due to unexpected circumstances, Ka Baird will not be able to perform at our Kiezsalon opening on 21st May. We are sorry about this, wish her all the best and are hoping to bring Ka back next year.
 
We are glad to announce that American percussionist Booker Stardrum will fill her slot. Booker was supposed to perform with us in 2020, so we're thrilled he is able to do so now. His music is a personal amalgamation of electro-acoustics, minimalism, ambient, jazz, and contemporary experimental electronic music that according to The Wire — “further solidifies Stardrum’s position as one of America’s most intriguing composers.”
 
Throughout the last decade, Stardrum has collaborated, toured and recorded with Horse LordsLee RanaldoCarl Stone, and Weyes Blood amongst others.
 
Kiezsalon 2022
 
Last but not least — tickets for Kiezsalon are already on sale. Four premieres kick-off the new season.
 
On Friday, May 20th saxophonist and electroacoustic composer Jason Sharp will present his third album on Constellation followed by Catalonian folk duo Tarta Relena. British composer Richard Skelton will perform his poignant landscape-inspired works on Saturday, May 21st with Booker Stardrum closing the night.
 
 
See you soon,
Michael Rosen & team
