7th Ambientfestival 'Zivilisation Der Liebe

  • GAUDIUM ET SPES - 7th Ambient Festival „Civilization of Love“ from 19th to 22nd of January 2012 in St. Aposteln, Cologne GAUDIUM ET SPES – joy and hope. ’Joy in music’ and ‘hope for a better future’ represent the pivotal theme of the programme of the 7th Ambientfestival of E’DE COLOGNE. The festival is searching for the mystical element of contemporary music, at the point where ambient, techno and contemporary classic meet. And it finds this element in the combination of electronic music and contemporary classical music – a combination well proven over the years for spherical space exploration in the Romanesque church St. Aposteln in Cologne. In 2012, the festival will be expanded with the symposium ’Transcendency in Music’ and a festival-techno-party on the Saturday of the event weekend. The ambientfestival goes far beyond the boundaries of the genre, opens new doors and overcomes old listening habits. On the Friday, we will celebrate the title ‘joy’ with contemporary experimental music . The intro will be presented by radio host Klaus Fiehe at the turntable, followed by the French musician Sylvain Chauveau who will introduce his project 0 (Zero) with acoustic guitar, E-bows and glockenspiel - melancholic, mystical, meditative. Virtuoso Greg Haines will get on stage with cello and laptop. His music lies between minimal, classical and Musique Concréte and challenges the Romanesque sound body of the church St. Aposteln. It will certainly be a joy and pleasure for the audience!
