the col­lec­tive

Sound­ing Sit­u­a­tions devel­ops high­ly inno­v­a­tive music the­ater where the per­form­ers and musi­cians, the audi­tive and the audi­ence meet in both phys­i­cal and imag­i­nary space for artis­tic action. Their projects cre­ate moments where polit­i­cal art, cur­rent ques­tions of our soci­ety, real­i­ty, utopia, and artis­tic mag­ic merge into a mul­ti­lay­ered art­work.

Often the group works between coun­tries, con­ti­nents, and cul­tur­al bound­aries in trans-tra­di­tion­al exper­i­ments hence over­com­ing chal­lenges and reveal­ing the beau­ty of our shared human exis­tence.

Isn’t that what polit­i­cal­ly moti­vat­ed art is sup­posed to do—open up per­spec­tives?

And isn’t that what art in gen­er­al should do, at least on an aes­thet­ic lev­el?

grow­ing con­nec­tions /​​ upcom­ing open­ings

Our first exper­i­ment at Ack­er­stadt­palast marked the begin­ning of some­thing that con­tin­ues to grow.

Sound­ing Sit­u­a­tions has been select­ed for the WAYS Anbah­nung pro­gramme by KSB. We are cur­rent­ly in South Bahia, where we have start­ed devel­op­ing a new col­lab­o­ra­tion with Teatro Pop­u­lar de Ilhéus (TPI). Through meet­ings, exchanges, and work­shops on site, we are shap­ing a shared roadmap and devel­op­ing ini­tial project ideas togeth­er.

Part of our team is already in Brazil and will remain until the end of June, when we will all come togeth­er in South Bahia—laying the ground for what we hope will become a long-term col­lab­o­ra­tion with TPI.

In par­al­lel, we are work­ing on the installa­tive ver­sion of Wag­n­er Weltweit, which will open at the Richard Wag­n­er Muse­um in Bayreuth on July 17, in the con­text of the 150th anniver­sary of the Bayreuth Fes­ti­val.
