Reading. Concert. Conversation
Brigitte Reimann (1933-1973) was one of the most important GDR authors. Carried away by the idea of shaping a just society, this artistically radical, astonishingly modern woman did not allow herself to be deterred from courageously and openly addressing grievances and deficits.
The directing team Anja-Christin Winkler and Ilka Seifert (werkbühne leipzig e.V.) developed an evening on Brigitte Reimann with the Ensemble Megaphon, which relates works by various female composers to each other with diary entries, performative elements and projections. This concert performance is embedded in a reading from Brigitte Reimann's main work "Franziska Linkerhand" and in a subsequent panel discussion on architecture and urban planning.
Participants:
Lenka Župková - violin, composition and artistic direction
Tatjana Prelevic - piano, composition
Sophia Körber - soprano
Christine Hansmann - reading
Anja-Christin Winkler & Ilka Seifert - concept and direction
Panel: Susann Milatz, Deputy President of the MV Chamber of Architects
