Kegelstatt ensemble will delight audiences with this beautiful, historical concert. The title is taken from a concert series founded by Erwin Schulhoff in Dresden after the end of the First World War. The composer spent time with visual artists such as Otto Dix, while he began to feel and process what would now be recognised as post-traumatic stress, having fought and been twice wounded in trench warfare. Together they founded the concert series, Werkstatt der Zeit (workshop of the time), which championed and premiered new “expressionist” music, as they felt strongly that late Romantic music no longer spoke to the times in which they were living.
