Part of the rainy days 2025 on -
Today’s music is overly intellectual? The 2025 festival rainy days grabs this cliché by the throat, choosing «bodies» as its theme. Bodies and physicality have always interested the arts. Especially in music, the subject is ambiguous, the idea that the body cannot do without spirit, nor the spirit without the body, more than a bon mot. The multitude of approaches to the body and bodies is reflected in the festival’s programme, once again designed for diehard fans of contemporary music and those who are simply curious alike, offering something for almost all age groups.

What you’ll hear and see

The music

  • John Zorn The Book of Heads (extraits)

The artists

  • Henri Växby electric guitar

Guitarist Henri Växby presents selected pieces from John Zorn’s The Book of Heads

– a series of solo etudes that explore the outer edges of guitar technique and sound. Combining composed gestures with improvisation, these works invite both performer and listener into a space where the familiar instrument is transformed through extended techniques, unexpected objects, and subtle theatricality.
