- Idea
This year's winter holiday music lab ‘Pzzktz’ is dedicated entirely to rhythm, and it does so in a variety of ways: in one lab, the whole body becomes an instrument; another lab introduces children to rhythm with language and the mouth; and in the third lab, the children explore our Tischlerei venue to see what can be done with rhythm.
The labs will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day from 3 to 8 February. On 8 February at 4 p.m., the young rhythm researchers will present the results of their lab work at the Tischlerei.
The following labs are available:
If your child wants to register for this year's winter holiday music lab, please indicate two desired labs. Depending on availability, we will then form the groups and assign the participants to one of the selected labs.
Lab 1: Let's groove – rhythm in motion
In this workshop, our whole body becomes an instrument. We will clap, snap our fingers, stamp, hop, whistle and sing. You will get to know rhythm games and we will invent a few rhythms together. If you want to move and make music without having to pick up an instrument, this is the right place for you.
The workshop is led by Myriam Brigmann.
Workshop 2: Master of the Ceremony – Rap and Beatboxing
In this workshop, you will learn how to beatbox and rap really well yourself. We have been on the road a lot in recent years with our art and now we want to show you what it takes to put on a great show on stage. Learn with us how to write interesting texts and perform complex beats using only your mouth. We will also make recordings and develop a performance for the final day. We look forward to seeing you!
The lab is led by Damion and Kays.
Laboratory 3: Spatial Sound
In this workshop, we will explore how a room can sound: we will play on walls, doors, banisters and even the floor of the carpentry workshop and find out how something sounds differently depending on whether you tap, strike or pound it, caress, wipe or scratch it. If you want to make sounds with everyday objects and use them to create moods and tell musical stories, this is the right place for you.
The laboratory is led by Felix Stachelhaus.
