Sound in the Garden 2026: Gigi Masin & Marco Baldini

Powered by d&b Soundscape

For decades, Gigi Masin’s deeply cinematic textures have merged minimalistic jazz and spacious synthesis into a profound poetry.

His pioneering work focuses heavily on the spaces “between” the notes, using silence as a physical instrument that allows each melancholic melody to breathe. 

Wielding an expansive array of ritualistic jazz sensibilities and experimental textures, Valentina Magaletti uses non-traditional materials like metal, porcelain and wood to find hidden tones. Magaletti is joined by upsammy’s nature-inspired sound design. Field recordings and sharp synthesis blend into fluidic soundscapes, blending smoothly with irregular rhythms and the airiest of crystalline melodies. The memories of rustling leaves and trickling water flow into complex synthesis modules to bend and warp unpredictably.

About Sound in the Garden

From August 12 to 16, 2026, the Neue Nationalgalerie will once again present the open-air concert series Sound in the Garden. Four concert evenings, specially designed for the Sculpture Garden, will bring together renowned musicians from a wide variety of genres. The series will conclude with a day featuring special sound installations in honor of the Japanese artist Fujiko Nakaya, who will present a site-specific fog sculpture in the Sculpture Garden. 

“Sound in the Garden” continues the tradition of innovative concert formats that have taken place time and again in the museum’s Sculpture Garden since the Neue Nationalgalerie opened—from the “Jazz in the Garden” events of the 1970s and 1980s, which featured artists such as Alice Coltrane and Keith Jarrett, to the “Sound in the Garden” series, which has become established since the museum’s reopening in 2022. 

The 2026 program brings together pioneers such as ambient trailblazer Gigi Masin and Krautrock icon Michael Rother (Neu!, Harmonia) with younger experimental artists such as upsammy, Valentina Magaletti, and Slauson Malone 1. The clarity and precision of Mies van der Rohe’s architecture and the ephemeral poetry of Fujiko Nakaya’s fog sculpture allow visitors to experience music as a spatial art form. The immersive d&b Soundscape audio system enables the audience to intensely experience the music as they wander among the garden’s sculptures and plants.
