Composition Commission to Camarero, Franceschini and Seidl

Fondazione La Biennale di Venezia, Italy

Since 2008 a cooperation has existed between the Biennale di Venezia, musicadhoy Madrid and Musik der Jahrhunderte to produce a joint piece of music theater every two years that is then performed at all three festivals in Venice, Madrid and Stuttgart. For 2010 three young teams from Italy, Spain and Germany were invited to an international video music project entitled "Freizeitgestaltung". Under the headings Art – Work – Leisure the composers are to each develop one part of music theater production together with their stage teams though independently of each other. With the support of the Ernst von Siemens Music Foundation German composer Hannes Seidl and his director Daniel Kötter are planning their part of the project – a piece for six voices with video and electronic music.

September 26th 2010, Premiere
Teatro Piccolo Arsenale, Venice
