Perperúna: Female Polyphonic Project based in Berlin. Six women, migrating birds from 5 countries: Greece, Germany, France, Israel & Spain- we are coming together driven by our common passion for Greek and Balkan polyphonic traditions."Perperúna" is a female symbol, an archaic tradition, that survives in the Balkans and refers to a ritual that local women in rural areas are carrying out in times of drought, to ask "god(s)" to pour rain and make the fields and trees spring...

Music by Bernhard Hollinger (https://linktr.ee/bhol).
A performance piece sought out to incapsulate our desire to reject ephemerality.
In Love, in spring sensations rise as we face immense beauty and growth; Beneath it all lays evident presence of change. Our fading bodies, withered flowers on table from the last weeks romantic dinner, are they less valuable?
In the search of emotional answers to the question; when facing with transience, do you love more or let go?
with Joa Luna
Avant-garde / ambient / electronica Get effortlessly absorbed by the microcosmos of electronic mantra, guided by subtle yet powerful voice, surrounded by sounds of nature, led by foggy synthesizers which entice you to get lost in the daydream.
Reconnect with your body and heal Joa Luna will be sharing her ambient sonic stories in a live performance combining field recordings collected last summer at an art residency - Countdown Grabowsee, sound healing synth frequencies and improvised voice painting.
