First Contact

A special project is the live concert "First Contact". This is a playful connection from improvised music and composed sequences with the machine instruments of Christof Schläger. The main connection is the natural sound of klassical instruments and the pure acoustic sound of the mechanical machine instruments. It is a meeting between composed moments from the machines and intuitive, fresh responses from the musicians.
