Concerts at the Kunsthaus Bregenz
In association with Art of Our Times KAK / Bregenzer Festspiele
As in past years, several concerts in the series Art of Our Times (KAZ) will be taking place at the Kunsthaus Bregenz. This summer we also invite you to experience music in an installation by raumlaborberlin. For the entire Art of Our Times program go to www.bregenzerfestspiele.com

Today Johannes Maria Staud, born in Innsbruck in 1974, has become what he dreamed of becoming when he was ten years old: a composer. He possesses extraordinary technical expertise, which he uses to steer listeners through a musical world of contrasts and changing perspectives.

Staud's music leads the listener into beautifully fashioned soundscapes, often half-hidden by a veil of mystery. His works resemble musical detective stories in which the composer plays tricks with the audience's expectations and leads them down strange paths into the deepest, darkest recesses of music, where surprises lurk at every turn. The composer strides with unerring, almost fatalistic confidence across uncertain, constantly changing terrain. Together with Laura Berman, Johannes Maria Staud will guide the audience through the concert program.

Christian Naujoks is currently even more well known in the music scene than in the visual arts scene. His first album "Untitled" – released last year on the renowned label Dial Records – received rave reviews from a number of newspapers. He can slip effortlessly between serious and popular music, for example between twelve-tone music and R & B. Naujoks' musical and performative output hovers between the visual arts and music.
