Near Yet Far: Voices, Music, and Society in the Time of COVID-19

"Voice in Music" – Concert II and Lecture

Lutherkirche Heidelberg

Mahnkopf & Leibowitz & Bosch
Mahnkopf & Leibowitz & Bosch

Concert featuring works by Claus-Steffen Mahnkopf, René Leibowitz, and early music

with a lecture by Dr. Nikolaus Bosch (Heidelberg University Hospital)

The current COVID-19 regulations are productively utilized as a dramaturgical and artistic challenge. From the perspective of the audience – whose numbers are limited or spread across repeated segments of the event – the pragmatic and theoretical juxtaposition of two poles results in an unusual aesthetic experience, namely from the physiology of the human voice and its interaction with space and social impact on the one hand, and its metaphorical significance as the voice of the individual in the private sphere (which requires protection, for example against eavesdropping) or the voter’s voice in the participatory and constitutive acts of democracy on the other.
