Eclectic Salon: The music of Helmut Oehring at Villa Aurora
Join Brightwork newmusic as we present the music of Helmut Oehring, composer, director, choreographer. Helmut Oehring was born in 1961 in East Berlin as a hearing child of deafmute parents. He considers German sign language his mother tongue, as well as a foundation for his audiovisual compositions and choreographies for musicians, performers, sign soloists, and dancers. He is an autodidact guitarist and composer.
Oehrings compositions and productions are performed worldwide. The New Yorker recently named him one of the most influential audiovisual composers alongside John Adams, Kaija Saariaho, Björk and Robert Ashley.
All works will be blended into each other and mixed with reading of texts from Helmut Oehringss autobiography With different eyes: Child of deafmute parents becoming a composer.
