OUR PEOPLE

Tue, Nov 12, 2024, 20:00
Konzerthaus Berlin, Werner-Otto-Saal (Berlin)
Frederick Ballentine (Tenor), Kunal Lahiry (Idea), Kunal Lahiry (Concept), Kunal Lahiry (Piano), German Mother Mandhla Laveaux (Voguing), German Mother Gina Angels (Dance), German Godmother Xena Louboutin (Dance), German Princess Joana Juicy-Couture (Voguing), Shayne Angels (Voguing), Zima Laveaux (Dance), Lucilla Schmidinger (Dramaturgy)
With "Our People", Indian-American pianist Kunal Lahiry and Grammy Award-winning tenor Frederick Ballentine are creating a space and a song program at the Konzerthaus for the Berlin voguing community, an important subculture for Black and LGBTQ communities. Marginalized by society, queer black and Latino New Yorkers developed “voguing” in the 1970s and 80s as a dance style and a way of expressing themselves artistically as well es finding themselves. In the so-called “ballrooms”, the stage becomes not only a platform for good music and dance, but also an emotional catwalk for conquering respect, recognition and belonging. Led by Lahiry and Ballentine, the programme this evening ranges from classical songs to traditional spirituals and the “AIDS Quilt Songbook” to Nina Simone: a unique concert, a bridge between two worlds and a moment to understand as well as remember the lost generation of black and LGBTQ people and to give the current generation a voice and a stage. It illustrates, according to Frederick Ballentine, “our separation from the whole, our constant oppression, our lost loves and souls - but, most beautifully, our resilience”

“Yol - The Path” by Zeynep Gedizlioglu describes the path of a sound, but also the artistic path of the Berlin composer of Turkish descent. Born in Moscow, Alexandra Karastyaneva Hermetin grew up in Sofia and now lives in Vienna. Her piece “Polynj” (Wermut) cleverly surrounds the solo tone of the cello with the timbres of the rest of the ensemble - a work in a reduced, impressive tonal language, whose motifs seem to move around a mysterious core. Michael Quell's “energeia aphanés” is also on the trail of a secret: it deals with “black energy”, which plays a central role in theories about the universe. Invisible and not directly detectable, “energeia aphanés” is the force that holds the structures of the universe together. We see the trace of its presence, but not itself. Next on the program is the world premiere of Makiko Nishikaze's “fantasie-fuge”, which is based on Bach's unfinished Fantasia and Fugue for Organ BWV 562. Nishikaze first orchestrated it for ensemble, then wrote it to completion and finally transformed it entirely into her own sound cosmos. The final piece is Helmut Zapf's composition “Heimat”, in which he asks about the location of himself and his musical world and provides a possible answer.

With fantastic younger musicians added to the line-up, the collective creates its usually unusual homage to its founding members, staying true to its roots and yet always with its finger on the pulse. »From Ancient to the Future« was the band’s motto right from the start and it speaks volumes about their musical positioning – not only in contemporary jazz, but when it comes to old musical traditions and new music as well.

The album »The Sixth Decade – from Paris to Paris« was recorded in 2020 at the Parisian festival »Sons d’Hiver«, thus also paying homage to the place where it all began. The Guardian writes about the interplay between the old and new guard: » It’s heartwarming to hear the Art Ensemble of Chicago’s devoted heirs so ready to carry the story on.«
