Confrontations: When Sound, Space, and Movement Meet
On Saturday, October 3, 2026, the Dornse of the Old Town Hall in Braunschweig transforms into an extraordinary resonant space for new and experimental music. As part of Three Days of New Music Braunschweig 2026, the festival invites you to an evening where sounds are not only heard but physically experienced in space.
What Silence Leaves Behind
The second festival day is titled What Silence Leaves Behind. A walk-in installation connects music, analog film projections, kinetic objects, light, shadow, and electronic sounds. Together with Thomas Bartels, a multifaceted soundscape is created where movement and sound are inseparably linked.
Water as a Poetic Starting Point
The center of the evening is water – as surface, depth, movement, and boundary. The figures Melusine, Undine, and the mermaid form the poetic starting point for an artistic exploration of transitions, dissolution, and change. Between human and water, body and projection, noise and silence, an open topography of breaks develops.
The Dornse Becomes an Instrument
The historic ambiance of the Old Town Hall gains a new acoustic dimension. Machines project, move, create noise, and cast shadows. Their mechanical processes become sculptural actors and flow into the musical composition. This creates an intense festival atmosphere that leaves traditional concert perspectives behind.
A Festival Evening for Active Discovery
The audience does not experience the performance from a single fixed seating position. Instead, the evening leads through various sound and image sources. Proximity and distance alter perception, individual fragments connect into personal impressions. Movement generates sound, sound changes space, and each step opens a new perspective.
New Music with Tradition and Future
The festival is organized by the Friends of New Music Braunschweig e.V. The series builds on the tradition of earlier Days of New Chamber Music and Festive Days of New Music. Its concept combines current developments in New Music with thematic concert formats, experimental sound ideas, and a direct relationship between audience, space, and performance.
Conclusion: Sound as a Walkable Experience
Three Days of New Music Braunschweig 2026 opens an evening for all who wish to discover music beyond familiar listening habits. In the Dornse, electronic sounds, projections, light, movement, and poetic images come together. For those who want to experience new music not just as sound but as a spatial and sensory experience, this special festival evening in Braunschweig awaits.
