MaerzMusik 2025
The festival’s final programme, co-curated by Wojtek Blecharz, explores listening as a relational practice and questions traditional forms of musical performance. Following one of Éliane Radigue’s guiding principles – “you can be in the smallest corner and hear the totality of what is going on” – the finale decentralises the stages of the Haus der Berliner Festspiele and invites the audience into its open spaces and, at the same time, into the microcosms of sound.
This year’s finale redefines normative ways of presenting and experiencing music – liberating the listener’s body, reversing roles and reshaping spatial relationships.
“I AM ALL EARS” invites for multidirectional, deep, intimate, far, embodied or selective listening. It allows to compose your own aural experience according to your needs. Listen to what is behind the curtain and let the space guide you.
