The double meaning of the English adjective »still« carries with it a latent tension between a motionless state and opposition. »UN/RUHE« an innovative evening oscillating between contemporary music and dance, is picking up on this theme: the main focus is the violin concert »still« by British composer Rebecca Saunders, which will be framed by the prelude of Richard Wagner’s »Tristan and Isolde« and the »Lulu-Suite« by Alban Berg. »still« which was premiered for the first time at the Beethovenfest in 2011, has been compositionally expanded upon specifically for »UN/RUHE« and opened up for dance. Just as »still« crosses the borders of violin technique and enters into unchartered musical territory, so too does »UN/RUHE« dare to step into the unknown with its melting together of music, dance, space and audience.
