After the First World War, Germany reinvented itself, because nothing was the same as before. Exactly 100 years ago, social life has changed completely. In the arts and architecture, circles of people came together to help shape the general departure, and the Bauhaus. Germany's most important think tank and art factory.
The headquarters of the Bauhaus School was the interaction of the various disciplines, an early form of networking. This is precisely what Martin Albrecht with his ensemble »Scriabin Code« is interested in as a multidimensional work of art on all senses. Launched in 2014 with a focus on the works of the musical visionary Alexander Skrijabin, the ensemble's new programme #BAUHAUSMATRIX focuses on composers associated with the Bauhaus.
Thus, the ensemble »Scriabin Code« is an interdisciplinary and »multisensual« working ensemble, in which classical music, improvisation, jazz and space-filling projected live-movement interact as an experimental gesamtkunstwerk. Music, color, form and light are raised to a new absolute unity with the approach of spatial art.
The ensemble takes up the classical original in a dialogical change, decodes and transforms it into something new through contemporary sound and visual language. Individual sequences are stringently developed and explored, sounds transformed and transcended, which takes on a further artistic dimension through the collaboration with video artist Reinhard Geller. The premiere of the Scriabin Code took place in 2015 as part of the BASF concert program in Ludwigshafen. Since then there have been over 20 performances, including guest artists such as the pianists Anna Gourari and Markus Becker or the electronics artist Eva Pöpplein.
