LOCKDOWN DIARY
With a video “Lockdown Diary” the Leipzig ensemble Tempus Konnex supports and encourages composers and musicians to think creatively during these challenging times. In partnership with the Forum of Contemporary Music Leipzig (FZML), Tempus Konnex founded the Ensemblefestival for contemporary music, which celebrated its first season in November 2020. The ongoing pandemic has prompted the artistic sector, including our festival, to scrutinize and reconceive conventional concert formats. Through these video diary entries, we are offering fresh compositions a platform, and continuing our momentum towards the second half of the Leipzig Ensemblefestival in April 2021.
Mit einem Lockdown-Tagebuch im Videoformat möchte das Leipziger Ensemble Tempus Konnex Komponist*innen als auch Musiker*innen in dieser fordernden Zeit unterstützen und ermutigen, kreativ voraus zu denken. Tempus Konnex hat gemeinsam mit dem Forum zeitgenössische Musik Leipzig (FZML) das Ensemblefestival für aktuelle Musik ins Leben gerufen, das im November 2020 seine erste Ausgabe feierte. Die derzeitige Pandemie bewegt den künstlerischen Sektor und auch unser Festival, gewohnte Konzert-Formate zu hinterfragen und neu zu entwerfen. Deshalb sollen mit Hilfe von musikalischen Video-Tagebucheinträgen den neuesten Kompositionen Gehör verschafft und die Spannung bis zum zweiten Teil des Leipziger Ensemblefestival im April 2021 gesteigert werden.
