PHØNIX16’s spatial sound performance explores sound and its migration – the sounds of this migration and the migration of these sounds.
The programme begins with two contrasting compositions: an often overlooked piece by the Slovenian-French composer Vinko Globokar, “Airs de voyages vers l'intérieur” (Songs of a Journey to Oneself) – in which Slovenian rhythms break through the idioms of the language of contemporary music, culminating in a ritual dance by the singers – and the sensuous and poetic “Marian Antiphons” by Leipzig-based Ukrainian composer Maxim Kolomiiets. The complete “Antiphons” have never before been performed in Europe. Commissioned by the festival, Tehran-born Samir TimajChi’s piece “New York” reflects a state of emptiness and loss. A sound transducer converts transforms eight singers into a polyphonic, ephemeral choir.
The concert concludes with the collective composition “Transmission with Katalin” for three singers and electronics. The piece is based on the work of the Hungarian-based Serbian poet Katalin Ladik, who pushes the boundaries of poetic expression through extended vocal techniques and archaic forms of folklore.

Biographien
PHØNIX16 ist ein 2012 gegründetes Berliner Solo-Ensemble für zeitgenössische und experimentelle Vokalmusik. Das Kollektiv erforscht das Phänomen der Stimme als primäres menschliches Instrument, aber auch als Träger sozialer, politischer und kultureller Ausdrucksformen und Kommunikationsmittel. Das Ensemble untersucht experimentelle neue vokale Kammermusik und arbeitet dabei eng mit Komponist*innen zusammen. PHØNIX16 nutzt verschiedene Forschungsquellen und realisiert seine Aufführungen in einer Vielzahl von Formaten, darunter experimentelle Filme und Installationen.
