In the panel on music theater jointly organized by the magazines Theater der Zeit and POSITIONEN – Texte zur aktuellen Musik, the editors: inside Dorte Lena Eilers (TdZ), Bastian Zimmermann and Andreas Engström (both POSITIONEN) together with panel guests Boram Lie (cellist / artistic director Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop), Iñigo Giner Miranda (Ordnung der Dinge) as well as Friederike Heller (director) penetrate the exciting aspects of hybrid music theater creation today: from staging a band, to staging sound, to sound choreographies. What does making music on a stage tell us? When does it need the body, when doesn’t it? What is music from the point of view of a staging?

Bastian Zimmermann is editor of Positionen and continues to work as a dramaturge and curator in the field of newly composed music, theater and performance. He curates the series “Music for Hotel Bars.” Lives in Berlin and Munich.

Andreas Engström is editor of Positionen. He works as a critic, editor and curator in the field of new music and sound art. He is currently working on a biography of the Swedish composer Carin Malmlöf-Forssling. Lives in Stockholm and Berlin.
