Head down to the Hallesches Tor U-bahn stop tonight to witness a world-class trio perform "Naldjorlak", one of the most recent works by French electroacoustic pioneer Eliane Radigue, in the composer’s presence:
After the performance, don’t forget to visit the nearby HAU 2 venue that opens the Zodiak Free Arts Lab revisitation series with a free concert installation on Disklavier by the late Conrad Schnitzler, another big name in the electronic music world:
CONRAD SCHNITZLER [DE] "Piano Works (disklavier)" / FREE ARTS LAB [DE]
Time: 19:30 – 1:00
Venue: HAU 2, Hallesches Ufer 32, 10963 Berlin-Kreuzberg
Tickets: Free admission
The various forms of Disklavier are essentially modern pianos that use electromechanical solenoids and optical sensors connected to LEDs allowing them to play notes and use the pedals independently of any human operator. Most models are based upon real acoustic pianos.
