doors: 7.30 pm CEST
concert starts:
approx. 8.00 pm CEST

As in the ABE nsemble title with its unfamiliar spelling, the performers, sound artists, sound researchers and instrument inventors represent both opposites in their musical and cultural origins and the spaces into which they performatively penetrate.

The nsemble plays nothing to the audience.
It dissolves from this expectation into a situational-intuitive creative process. Our focus: the moment of the emergence of a spatial digital performance using sensor and audio technologies and instruments. We believe that this is the only way to create and bring about something new.
