Dom Radio

Mysticism, poetry, and philosophy are three paths that give access to experiencing the impossible. The cycle of lectures “Experiencing the Impossible” examines these paths not so much in their striving to clarify and explain the world, but on the contrary – in their pursuit of the origins of all knowledge, the pre-linguistic foundations of speech and thinking, to the nature of reality.

MusicAeterna resident composer Andreas Moustoukis presents the result of his two-year work at Dom Radio. Together with the “Liturgy of St. Leontius”, fragments of which have been repeatedly heard in the concerts by the musicAeterna Choir, on June 6, the world premiere of his new composition – IM ÄTHER (“In Ether”) for mixed choir, 4 double basses, electronics, percussion and the ondes Martenot will take place. This is a micropolyphonic work based on the poems by Paul Celan interspersed with quotations from world cinema.

The author explains the essence of the new work as follows: “Im Äther (στον αιθέρα) is the need to breath out in the stratosphere were the gravitation is low and all the time is becoming one and a single moment of a crystal silence. The past, the present and the future stop to exist between then and now in a violent and compensating ‘why’, they just exist timelessly in the cosmic black as if they were small red shining dots of love, the tears of eternity.”

«Bikapo of the Heavenly Forest» is a concert-mystery involving sound kinetic sculptures, structures and objects by Herman Vinogradov. Bikapo is a number of unique sound structures and metal objects acting on the principle of free vibration, as well as a total sound installation built using them. In the space of this installation action is unfolding that combines sound, light, and natural elements — earth, fire, and water. As the installation author said, Bikapo is a consciousness, the bearer of which he was himself, the way to freedom of creative expression through a ritual addressed to the primordiality, «primordial human essence».
