SUMMARY:Songs of the Speechless – Studio Dan in Concert
DESCRIPTION:Images: Ditz Fejer\n \nOctober 7 | 6:30 PM\nTICKETS AVAILABLE HERE\n \nIn Songs of the Speechless, ( https://studiodan.at/projekte/songs-of-the-speechless/ ) the Vienna-based ensemble Studio Dan ( https://studiodan.at/en/ensemble/studio-dan/ ) launches an artistic intervention for unsettling times. Marking their 20th anniversary, the group responds to today’s growing threats to human dignity and democracy. Not with silence, but with sound.\n \nAbout the Concert\nPremiering live at the ACFNY ( https://acfny.org/ ), this first collection of Songs of the Speechless (March–September 2025) is a cycle of short and very short compositions. Studio Dan’s flexible instrumentation and genre-bending style allow the ensemble to raise their musical voice in ever-shifting forms. Urgent, inventive, and deeply human, the concert offers a defiant alternative to speechlessness, with compositions of Jalalu-Kalvert Nelson, Ingrid Laubrock, Myra Melford, Kristin Norderval, Gerald Resch, Daniel Riegler, Manos Tsangaris, Bernhard Gandner and Clemens Wenger.\n \nAbout the Ensemble\nFounded in 2005 by trombonist and composer Daniel Riegler, ( https://studiodan.at/en/presse/rezensionen/dan-rieglers-studio-dan-ensemble-label/ ) Studio Dan is a genre-defying ensemble working at the intersection of composition, improvisation, and experimental music.
