Projects
MetrOstinato, a Project by Henrike Legner and Ophelia Flassig, combines aesthetic moments in everyday live with a scenic performance at an established cultural location.
It is a finalist in the HMTM's XPLORE competition for new concert formats. The selected students received a production budget of €3,000 to implement and perform their idea at a public final on 17 May 2024.
In the first part, on 7 April, baroque instruments and early music will be removed from their usual concert context and made tangible for the city population. At the U3 subway stations between Fürstenried West and Brudermühlstrasse, a historical Chaconne by Henry Purcell, The Fairy-Queen (1692), is being performed simultaneously and can be experienced as a musical safari as you drive past.
In the second part, on 17 May, the sound world of the subway (metro) was in sound and images and set in a musical dialogue in the concert hall of the Reaktorhalle (Luisenstraße 37a 80333 Munich) that connects past and present.
