CCA Berlin and INOUWA invite you to the premiere of Concerts by Yuri Umemoto on 4 April at 4 pm, featuring piano by Yuri Umemoto, cello by Ozgur Kaya, violin by Weronika Weiss, and fixed media in the Chapel of Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church.
Yuri Umemoto (b. 2002, Tokyo) is a composer currently in residence at Akademie Schloss Solitude, Stuttgart. Building on notation, recording, and editing, his music often incorporates sampled voices and songs in a practice that touches on classical and contemporary music, experimental, ambient, and pop.
In Concerts, fragments of everyday life appear as motives: a neighbor covering his ears, pigeons gathering where they are routinely fed, an ex-girlfriend with a bored expression, brothers absorbed in their video game. Moments of pleasure and casual aggression accumulate alongside the low mechanical chorus of a washing machine.
Limited capacity, 10 € entry, tickets at the door. Drinks and food will be available before and after the performance.
