At the opening, you can experience first excerpts from the annual program in the form of talks, guided tours, and musical contributions. The Resident Music Collective will present selections from its new composition Sonic Affinities, which explores familial closeness, friction, and resonance in a polyphonic way.
Get a first impression and feel free to return: the annual program Family Matters grows through dialogue – with voices from around the world and from Berlin’s urban society. There is always something new to discover.
