Fr., 8. November – 20:30 bei uns im Laden

Am Freitag, den 8. November kommt die amerikanische Sängerin, Performerin und Klangkünstlerin Shelley Hirsch für einen ganz besonderen Abend nach München. Shelley Hirsch ist seit Jahrzehnten eine der prägenden Figuren der New Yorker Avantgarde-Szene und mit ihren Performances weltweit unterwegs.
Nun wird sie kurz in München im Optimal Station machen und als Weltpremiere eine Lesung aus ihren Texten der letzten Jahre veranstalten.
A World Premiere!
Shelley Hirsch will present a reading of her stream of consciousness texts which were all written while immersing herself in music. She has performed the texts with music she composed for vocalists, string players, piano, electronic keyboards and prerecorded samples but here the texts stand on their own.
Shelley Hirsch has been pushing boundaries with her unique vocal art drawing on her life experiences, her memory, and her vivid imagination for decades. She has presented her compositions, staged multimedia works, improvisations, radio plays, installations, and collaborations in concert halls, clubs, festivals, theaters, museums, galleries, and on radio, film, and television on five continents.
„A unique poetry of the now, telling of the waywardness and drift of language … full of lust and humour, lasciviousness and rebellion.”
(Harry Lachner)
„Hirsch’s voice is her instrument and language is her art.creating houses full of humor, absurdity, and poetic depth.“
(Rudolf Amstutz)
