Stories and music about traveling in Münsterland

“Stop stories – on the road” are short stories and an electronic music piece, dealing in different ways with the environment of the Münsterland. In 2002, the stories were able to listen for several months in the Euro buses transport companies of Munster. The german audio book CD was the first publication of NEWSIC together with the Foundation, located in the Münsterland Schöppingen artists, guest appearances in the stories the authors of the stop in 2001 as a scholarship, and the Foundation for Art and Cultural Münsterland.

Martin Heckmann viewed during the bus ride into the sky and lets his thoughts wander, while Matthias Göritz his own way has found rich in artistic portrait form. The Red Lights of Jan Groh tell a true story of the frontier in 1945. The digitized voices of nightingales by Dorothée Hahne become melancholic songs and Malgorzata Saramonowicz finished a story of another kind about searching god. Continue reading…

Sagenhaft

A star map on earth


The starry sky above Westphalia (in the constellation of around 5000 years ago)

If around 5000 years ago, the holy places of worship in Westphalia had lit up bonfires at night, they would have been seen from the sky and looked like this on a map. The picture shows a map (created using Google Maps), in which are seen the 17 constellations that Wolfgang Thiele (†2006) found to have been assigned to the old churches of Westphalia around 1300. They represent the image of the northern sky around 5000 years ago. Continue reading…

Interferences of inner voices

3 instruments & live electronics [2010]

Commission for the Amsterdam Recorder-Ensemble aXoloT Trio.
The composition is designed so that it can be interpreted, preferably in free form, by wind and / or string instruments. The first performance was made upon request from the musicians of the aXolot trio for 3 sopranino recorders.
The live circuit is built from a Max / MSP programming patch, which interacts with other elements in quadrophonic amplification therefore reinforcing the sounds of live instruments along with six delays, a harmonizer and 10 samplers interacting in space and time.

KULTURSPIEGEL ist die monatliche Sendereihe mit der Komponistin Dorothée Hahne im Kulturstream von Internetradio.de.

Die Sendung widmet die Komponistin Ihrem Konzert über die Kaiserin Theophanu, das im Jahr 2000 vom ensemble newsic am Grab der Kaiserin in Köln uraufgeführt wurde.

Die vertonten Texte aus mittelalterlichen Codici und Analen eröffnen einen zeitnahmen und authentischen Blick in das Werken und Wirken der Kaiserin, die als byzantinische Prinzessin den Deutschen Kaiserthron bestieg. Als eine der mächtigsten Erscheinungen des Mittelalters verewigte sie sich in männlicher Form und byzantinischer Tradition als “Theophanu, von Gottes Gnade erhabener Kaiser”. Die Spuren ihres sozialen und kulturellen Einflußes führen bis in die Gegenwart. Das Konzert für Mezzosopran, Blockflöten, Traversflöten und Live-Elektronik zeichnet das Leben der Kaiserin in vielschichtigen Klanglandschaften nach.
