Description

Can musical improvisation inspire us to see things differently?
In his concert, Noam Sivan unfolds the magic of the unpredictable: Familiar sounds take surprising turns in free improvisation and take on new meanings. A special moment – playing blindfolded – reveals a deeper dimension of musical intuition.

The event is part of the festival “ImproVision” from November 12 to 16, 2025. More information about the festival program can be found here.

7 pm “Vision: Near, Far, and Imaginary”

8 p.m. “Piano Battle” with Georg Thoma and Jean-Baptiste Doulcet

10 pm “Orphic Hymns” – A sensual sound meditation with electronic sounds

In an intimate atmosphere and softly dimmed lighting, the sense of sight is allowed to rest – and the electronic sounds fill the room.
With his Orphic Hymns, multimedia artist and composer Damian Marhulets creates improvised sound meditations that lead inwards and widen the view – towards the infinity of being.
