"AWAKENINGS" Musik&Neurowissenschaft inspiriert von Oliver Sacks
Overview
Intro
"Awakenings" - interdisciplinary event with music neuroscience. Performers: Helena Winkelmann, violin, Eli Eban, clarinet, Iseut Chuat, cello, Krisztina Wajsza, piano
"Awakenings" is a musical and neuroscientific project inspired by the book of the same name by British neurologist Oliver Sacks (1933-2015). Basel-based composer Helena Winkelman has taken on the challenge of musically translating the fate of the patients affected at the time, who suffered for decades in isolation at Beth Abraham Hospital.
She worked with Parkinson's patients at Basel University Hospital
and was inspired by them.
The Basel premiere of her quartet for clarinet, violin, cello and piano "Awakenings", dedicated to Jürg
Wyttenbach, will be framed by a neuroscientific discussion with PD Dr. med. Athina Papadopoulou & PD Dr.med. Marcus D' Souza and with musical works by Walter Rabl and Johannes Brahms. This will be followed by an aperitif with Q & A.
