Works by Goldmann, Heisig, Bredemeyer (UA), Schleiermacher a.o.

The event could not take place as planned due to the Corona measures. But it did not remain silent. The event was recorded and broadcast by Deutschlandfunk.

The music of the East German composers cannot be pigeonholed. Like everywhere else, they pursued their own paths and different aspirations. The palette ranges from "socialist Biedermeier" to open forms, collages, improvisations ...

The concert of the Ensemble Avantgarde will highlight some of their positions: Friedrich Goldmann and Reiner Bredemeyer belonged to the father generation of the East German avant-garde, Hermann Keller to the middle one, always deliberately and with relish placing himself in the no man's land between serious music and jazz, composed music and improvisation. Richter de Vroe, Heisig and Schleiermacher belong to the youngest East German generation.
