aDevantgarde #18 - SCHÖNHEIT - Duo Helbig/Wangler

In the organizer's words:

aDevantgarde #18
Music Festival Made by Composers

BEAUTY

The aDevantgarde - Festival of Composers is taking place for the 18th time this summer. Alexander Strauch and Markus Lehmann-Horn have put together a program that focuses on the concept of beauty. What is beautiful, in new music and in general? Which concepts go beyond mere questions of taste today? In this sense, aDevantgarde #18 invites you to a very beautiful festival.

Duo Helbig/Wangler
Works by Nikolaus Brass, Keiko Harada, Gregor Mayrhofer and Lisa Streich as well as world premieres by Henrik Ajax and Jakob Stillmark

There are important works of contemporary music for piano solo and accordion solo. However, very little literature exists for both instruments in duo. A stroke of luck for this duo formation is the concert work of the married couple Brigitte Helbig (piano) and Kai Wangler-Helbig (accordion). Henrik Ajax and Jakob Stillmark write new works for them. Lisa Streich's "Existenser" for solo piano and electronics and a new piece for solo accordion and live electronics by Gregor Mayrhofer will be performed. This will be accompanied by "F - Fragments" by Keiko Harada and "Dialoghi d'amore" by Nikolaus Brass, which he composed especially for the duo's wedding.
