Manuals of the Present – Music from Art

Nikolai Music on Friday
Works by figures from the visual arts in dialogue with organ music from bygone eras.
In “Music from Art,” you’ll hear works by artists who, in addition to paintings, conceptual art, or installations, also conceived or created music. Among them are Hanne Darboven, Lyonel Feininger, and Annika Kahrs. Sound works by art students engage in a fascinating dialogue with organ music from earlier centuries.
Important: Seating is limited for concerts held at the museum. The ticket is valid for admission to the concert but does not guarantee a seat.
About “Manuale des Jetzt”
The concert series, part of “Nikolai Music on Friday,” accompanies the special exhibition “Chorus” at St. Nicholas Church. Curated by composer and organist Alexander Moosbrugger, it presents the organ as an instrument of the present. The title refers to the manual—the keyboard of an organ played with the hands. Focusing on various themes, the concerts combine contemporary music with Berlin’s urban and intellectual history. They address current social issues and showcase the organ as an instrument of the present.
Admission to the concert is free for individuals with a Ukrainian passport, a Ukrainian residence permit, or a valid student ID from a Ukrainian university and a residence permit in Germany, as well as for all individuals with an electronic residence permit (eAT).
Admission to our event series “Nikolai Music on Friday” is free for people with a Ukrainian passport, a residence permit from Ukraine, or a valid student ID from a Ukrainian university and a residence permit in Germany, as well as for anyone with an electronic residence permit (eAT).
