environmental dialogue

The film "Environmental Dialogue" documents the fascinating journey of the experimental choir Alte Stimmen, which explores the sonic diversity of specific locations in Cologne. For 15 years, the choir has been performing as a unique collective of singers over 60, exploring selected spaces to uncover their unique acoustic qualities. Their stages, from the Melanchthon Academy to the Museum Kolumba, open up a sonic dimension that turns spaces into protagonists. In the midst of the urban hustle and bustle, a symbiotic connection is created between architecture and the human voice, immortalised through an experimental music film. These audiovisual explorations not only emphasise cultural responsibility and the creative act of listening, but also invite us to reflect on the social significance of space and sound. "Environmental Dialogue" thus offers an immersive meditation on the relationship between humans and the urban environment and appeals to both sound enthusiasts and culturally interested thinkers.
