  • 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. The closing concert on the Sunday starts in transcendental, divine style. The Canadian Lubomyr Melnyk – sound artist and mystic in one - will open the concert on a grand piano. His ‘continuous music’ is based on a physical/mental method to play tones and notes sequences at an incredible speed and over an unbelievably headspinning duration. Volker Bertelmann alias Hauschka follows with a performance equally exciting. He will pound minimal techno as clear as bells on a prepared piano through the church naval melting the sounds together in a duet with Melnyk into a ‘Symphonie pathètique’. The ensemble-son-et-lumière will complete the spatial/sound experience with organ, kettledrum and trumpet. Music for a better world!
