IYOUWEBE

Concert :23.10. Kammermusiksaal Berliner Philharmonie, 16.00 Uhr

Receiving support from the Berlin Senate, "IYOUWEBE " is presenting a Jazz opera in concert form at the Chamber Music Hall of the Berliner Philharmonie this fall. Further performances are planned in countries where our singers are from, such as Georgia, China, Greece and Germany. We would therefore like to apply for the 1st and 3 rd categories of your festival in Greece with our current project :

"Take my Otherness"
A Jazz opera in 3 acts from and with "IYouWeBe"
Composition : Dorothea Mader, "IYouWeBe"
Lyrics : Vivien Lee , "IYouWeBe"
Dramaturgy : Vivien Lee, "IYouWeBe"

"Take my Otherness" is based on concepts in Bjung Chul Han's book "Hyperculturality-Culture and Globalisation", that has a critical perspective on today's time management and understanding of progress that only emphasizes acceleration. The themes of this philosophical discussion are home, globalisation, world conflicts and peace. They are being reflected in this opera from the point of view of the singers and musicians, as well as various European authors and philosophers.

Each of the musicians brought in their own special and personal experiences in forms of improvisation, composition, lyrics and dramaturgy throughout the whole piece. Although no specific roles were planned in this opera a miraclous mixture of diverse musical forms emerged and resulted in a creative artistical work that is crossing all borders.

Each song is written in its original language and re-composed in styles where traditional melodies merge into new compositions with emotions like :fear, loss, stress, loneliness and hope, connected to specific female experiences.

We are happy !!
