With Songs of the Speechless, Studio Dan launches its twentieth anniversary season with a new artistic intervention. Conceived in response to a moment of global upheaval, the project addresses those situations when words fail us — yet something must still be said.
This growing collection of miniatures enables the ensemble to raise its voice in many different contexts: before and after concerts, on and off stage, in public and digital spaces alike.
With works by Bernhard Gander, Jalalu-Kalvert Nelson, Ingrid Laubrock, Kristin Norderval, Gerald Resch, Daniel Riegler, Manos Tsangaris, and Clemens Wenger.
