zamus: early music festival | Gustav Mahler and the music of yoga | Compagnia di Punto

Western and Indian philosophy have very different perspectives on life. The Compagnia di Punto demonstrates this in their concert by comparing the dramatic music of Gustav Mahler with music from yoga. On the one hand, there is the music of a composer who struggles with himself and the world in his art; on the other, there is music that aims to expand the consciousness of musicians and listeners. Can the music of yoga also shed a new light on Western music? The concert is an experiment that attempts to make the dramatic intensity of romantic music tangible from a different perspective - as something that can be felt in the connection between instrumentalist and audience.

Idea and concept: Christian Binde
