Fascinating voices from the far north

The roots of PIQSIQ lie in the arctic regions of Kitikmeot and Kivalliq (Nunavut, Canada). Their unique vocal sound world combines Kattajaq (Inuit throat singing) with modern sounds and techniques. Long forbidden to the public, Kattajaq is far more than a musical form of expression: it reflects the world of life and experience of the Inuit, and allowing it to be heard is also a political act of reviving their cultural heritage.



After the concert with the Inuit sisters Tiffany Kuliktana Ayalik and Kayley Inuksuk Mackay, visitors will have the opportunity to ask the artists questions. The evening will be accompanied by Nina Reuther (ethnomusicologist).
