Sound Plasma is going back to Berlin for its 10th anniversary.
On 6 November 2026 Ensemble for New Music Tallinn and Ensemble21 (Belgium) come together to create a vibrant and daring musical dialogue. This program brings together works by Madli Marje Gildemann, Oren Boneh, and Arash Yazdani, as well as Jean-Luc Hervé’s "Germination", a work that blends concert and sound installation to create a constantly evolving soundscape.
Through rich sonorities and instrumental combinations from both ensembles, the concert explores perpetually transforming universes: soundscapes that take root, grow, and flourish under the batons of Arash Yazdani and Marc Collet.
This collaboration between Brussels and Tallinn gives rise to a demanding and nuanced musical dialogue, rooted in a profound exploration of contemporary musical languages.
Program:
Madli Marje Gildemann "Metanoia" (2025)
Oren Boneh "Widget Adjective" (2025)
Arash Yazdani "Shimmering of White Phosphorus" (2024)
Jean-Luc Hervé "Germination" (2013)
