Sound Spaces - Staatliches Institut für Musikforschung - Preußischer Kulturbesitz

We listen to music almost everywhere these days. With headphones on the suburban railway, in concert halls and clubs, sometimes even in museums. In addition to connecting us with the external scenery, music can also create emotional, inner spaces and put listeners in a wide variety of states. The MIM invites you to experience the outer and inner sound spaces together:

This can be the sound space of a ruler between the Middle Ages and modern times, who gathers personalities from art and culture around her. The Lux Orientis ensemble brings the resonances and contradictions of the cultural space between European and Middle Eastern cultures to life at the MIM. With Handel's most beautiful opera melodies, we trace how the intimate enjoyment of music differs from the public performance and the privatisation of public space that is common today through the personal soundtrack on the ears.
