Workshop: Kreativ Modular Synthesizer

• Other

With their limitless tonal possibilities, analogue synthesisers shaped the sound of 20th century pop music – and, despite all digital developments, are more popular than ever today. In the workshop, participants can extensively try out cables, buttons and knobs and create exciting sounds, noises and tunes using electricity. A dozen analogue, modular synthesisers are available for experimenting and improvising – and not only on your own, but also all the more exciting together as an ensemble!

Please note: this workshop is for young people aged 16 and over as well as adults. All participants need a ticket.

Children and young people under 16 years of age cannot take part in this workshop.

This workshop will be run by synth expert Gammon. He has played the modular synthesiser since the mid-1990s and will bring pieces for the group to the workshop or assist you in composing. He is a composer and producer for theatre, dance and performance projects himself. In 2013, he was awarded the international music mediation prize »Junge Ohren« (Young Ears) and won the German competition »Kinder zum Olymp« (Children to Olympus). With his workshop format »Modular Synthesizer Ensemble«, he has been a guest at the SUPERBOOTH in Berlin since 2017 and regularly at the Elbphilharmonie since 2018. Gammon also collaborates internationally with educational and cultural institutions.
