How does democracy work? – Apprentice workshop

Why does an ensemble need democracy? What rules are there in an ensemble and what happens if they are not followed?

Who decides what is played and who takes on which task?

Working on a composition together is a process that demands attentiveness and is based on the basic democratic principles of respect, tolerance and solidarity as well as a willingness to engage in dialogue and cooperation.
The method of the modular synthesiser ensemble makes it possible to address the characteristics of democracy without abandoning the playful and creative ease of making music.

Concept and project management: Katrin Prankl and Gammon
