The question is now
Valentin Garvie (Argentina), Jazzfestival Buenos Aires (Argenitina), Rudi Mahall (Germany), Etienne Nillesen (Germany)
Imagine a silent, empty room to be filled with sound... A vacuum, an open question, which asks for a response NOW. Imagine a music that answers the present calls. A room full of time for ideas to develope, for plans to accomplish... or reject. A think-tank, a work-shop, a space to share, brainstorm and reflect. And a rare opportunity for a profound intercultural conflation to be performed. THE QUESTION IS NOW is a music coproduction in the field of contemporary music and Jazz. Three Argentinian and three German Jazz intend to find new answers and implement their diverse South-American and European backgrounds into a current musical language. After an extended rehearsal phase in Buenos Aires, this music production will be presented in several concerts.
