Thurs. 23 Nov.

21:00 TON.ART Unter Kuratel II

Podium Discussion: Music -- Theology of Liberation? Liberation from Theology?

Guests: Dr. Estella Krejci (ethnologist), Univ. Prof. Dr. Herbert Hrachovec (philosopher), Bertl Mütter (musician), Hans Steiner (musician)

Moderation: Mag. Klaus Nüchtern (journalist, former cultural director of "Falter")

This high-power round table comprising specialists on philosophy, theology, ethnology, music, literature, ton.artology and celibacy will treat the scatalogical, ritual and pathological implications of music, in the special context of TON.ART. Among the theses: "(S)he who has knowledge and art, also has religion; s(he) who has neither, really has religion." (J.W.v.Goethe --Zahme Xenien IX) or for all non-philosophers: "S(he) who has sorrows, also has liquor." (W. Busch -- Die fromme Helene)

"I'm tired of all of this ear-piercing music. It has jazzed itself out in me. The band's packing up and leaving. I would have like to have hit it right, but I'm too untalented." (Felix Dörmann -- Jazz-Wiener Roman) As a result: The best (and strongest-nerved) non-TON.ART players in the area are reproducing the original arrangements of the best TON.ART melodies on the original TON.ART instruments, exactly as they were put down on paper! That is to say, a world première! Klaus Peham
