The artists
- lovemusic
In Protest of the Physical, lovemusic offers an experience in four tableaux,
in which the performers’ bodies are not merely vehicles for instrumental execution, but fully embodied physical presences on stage – both intrinsically intertwined with the music and its physical demands, and serving as a foil to highlight how gesture shapes our listening experience. By incorporating artists from different disciplines into the creative process, questioning the role of the audience itself, and using the body as an expressive tool of communication, the collective also seeks to reclaim their position as unique performers on stage, rather than replaceable «instrumentalists».
Supported by Jazz & New Music, a programme of Villa Albertine and Albertine Foundation, Impuls Neue Musik, Mécénat Caisse des Dépôts, Conseil Régional Grand Est, Ville de Strasbourg, Spedidam and Adami
lovemusic is a recipient of the Ernst von Siemens Musikstiftung Ensemble Prize 2025.
Nik Bohnenberger's piece is supported by the PwC Foundation Luxembourg, under the aegis of Fondation de Luxembourg.
