CROSSING BORDERS

Meitar Ensemble (Israel), Neue Vocalsolisten (Germany), Ofer Pelz (Israel/Canada), Sarah Nemtsov (Germany)

Exploring and crossing boundaries: For Crossing Borders, two composers and a visual artist create both a spiritual and a material space in which the sense and nonsense of borders and limitations can be explored. Urgent social and political issues are questioned: immigration, refugee movements, Israeli-Palestinian borders, Israeli-German past and present as well as gender boundaries. The composition, which also explores the limits of the instruments, is based on writings by immigrant or refugee writers.
