I wanted to revisit Bauhaus history in its entirety \u2013 one episode for every year.<br><br>Each episode focused on a specific topic that played a significant role in the corresponding year. But this time around, the stories about the Bauhaus weren\u2019t supposed to be conveyed in conversation and words alone. The school of art and design deserves a touch of artistic flair, something creative, novel. And with a podcast, there\u2019s one artistic genre especially suited for this purpose: music! The idea is to create a different level of listening through music, to create a mood that allows us to experience our trip back in time to the years 1919 to 1933 even more intensively. In the same way something magical happens when we unpack a world of new ideas in a good conversation, music too is full of magic because it eludes words and yet can speak directly to the heart.<br><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern ' data-pattern='ho\/text-zitat'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-7'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid cf-gutter-5 cf-side-5'>\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-md-6 col-md-offset-3 col-xs-12'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\"><figure class='wp-block-ho-quote '>\n\t\t\t<blockquote>\u201cPerhaps members of the Bauhaus sensed what we can explain neurologically today: Music sparks inspiration.\u201d<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption>Adriana Kapsreiter<\/figcaption>\n\t<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern toggle-optional-headline' data-pattern='ho\/text-option-headline'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-7'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid cf-gutter-5 cf-side-5'>\n\n<div  class='row ho-pattern-optional-headline'>\n\n<div  class='col col-md-6 col-xs-12 col-md-offset-6'>\n\n<div  class='padding-bottom-4'>\n<h2 class='ho-sd-h5' style=\"white-space: normal;\">Lorem ipsum<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-md-6 col-xs-12 col-md-offset-6'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>The fact that music played an important role at the historic Bauhaus fits wonderfully in this respect. Listening to music, playing music, composing music, translating music into other artistic genres \u2013 all of that was part of the Bauhaus story and even more. Although I\u2019m an art historian and love history and really appreciate historical reconstructions, it was clear to me that in the second podcast season, music should not sound like it did in the Bauhaus era, rather it should convey the spirit and the mood of those years and its themes. It should connect a piece of the past with a piece of the present, a bridge from then to now.<br><br>But how does one go about that? I had to find someone who not only understood my vision of a musical bridge spanning the Bauhaus and today, but also someone who could musically build it. Then I found Ralf Merten, a lucky strike for this project in many ways. He is a composer, plays multiple instruments, works as an artist known by the pseudonym Kobat, composes and produces film scores, theatre music and marketing jingles \u2013 basically he knows every possible type of performance and purpose in which music plays a role. And most importantly, he immediately understood my vision.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern ' data-pattern='ho\/medien-bild-zwei-bilder-gross-gross'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-7'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid cf-gutter-5 cf-side-5'>\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-md-6 col-xs-11 mobile-margin-bottom-5'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\"><figure itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lazy-media-inline \" role=\"group\" aria-describedby=\"media_3gzU3J\">\n<script type=\"application\/json\">{\n\"id\" : 23267,\n\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-300x192.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":192,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":15755},\"large\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-1024x654.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":654,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":104775},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-768x491.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":491,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":66624},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-1536x981.jpg\",\"width\":1536,\"height\":981,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":204066},\"2048x2048\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-2048x1308.jpg\",\"width\":2048,\"height\":1308,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":335394},\"small\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-440x281.jpg\",\"width\":440,\"height\":281,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":28147},\"semi\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-580x370.jpg\",\"width\":580,\"height\":370,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":43611},\"mobile\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-720x460.jpg\",\"width\":720,\"height\":460,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":60450},\"hd\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-1280x818.jpg\",\"width\":1280,\"height\":818,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":151081},\"full\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin-1920x1226.jpg\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":1226,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":299491},\"original\":{\"file\":\"14_BHA-Festival_Programm_Bauhaus-Kapelle_1930_Bauhaus-Archiv-Berlin.jpg\",\"width\":3632,\"height\":2320}},\n\"alt\" : \"Four musicians in a black-and-white image play instruments on stage with the word &quot;bauhaus&quot;

It would be presumptuous to historically replicate this upheaval or apply it to the current state of contemporary music. Nor would it function as illustrative music for a podcast. The question was more about what exactly we wanted to illuminate about the Bauhaus.<br><br>In discussions and brainstorming sessions with Adriana Kapsreiter, we eventually agreed that the founding and early years of the Bauhaus in Weimar were significantly influenced by a community spirit and experimentation. These two pillars would be the basis of our musical conception.There are bandlike structures, improvisation and collective working methods that are suited quite well to translating the spirit of community into music. It\u2019s a working method similar to that practised in jazz, especially free jazz, Krautrock and, to some extent, electronic music.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern ' data-pattern='ho\/text-zitat'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-7'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid cf-gutter-5 cf-side-5'>\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-md-6 col-md-offset-3 col-xs-12'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\"><figure class='wp-block-ho-quote '>\n\t\t\t<blockquote>\u201cAs the composer, I\u2019m not the only one developing melodies and structures, but rather several musicians contribute their own ideas as equal collaborators, then the collective responds to it, generating dialogue and feedback.\u201d<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption>Ralf Merten<\/figcaption>\n\t<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern toggle-optional-headline' data-pattern='ho\/text-option-headline'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-7'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid cf-gutter-5 cf-side-5'>\n\n<div  class='row ho-pattern-optional-headline'>\n\n<div  class='col col-md-6 col-xs-12 col-md-offset-6'>\n\n<div  class='padding-bottom-4'>\n<h2 class='ho-sd-h5' style=\"white-space: normal;\">Lorem ipsum<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-md-6 col-xs-12 col-md-offset-6'>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ho-div\">\t<p class='ho-sd-body'>The way we arranged the setting was not to compose the music conventionally, but rather develop it during the recording session in the collective \u2013 not in the sense of historically reenacting the legendary Bauhaus orchestra. Rather our goal was to record improvised music using traditional \u2013 but also contemporary \u2013 techniques like electronics, granular effects and modular synthesisers which would invoke the spirit of awakening of those first Bauhaus students in Weimar, serve as background music for the podcast, illustrate and tell us about the Bauhaus entirely without words. To avoid reproducing stereotypes and stylistic clich\u00e9s during improvisation, I picked six musicians for this experiment, all of whom have never performed before in this formation. They all come from different backgrounds and have actively worked as improvisers and composers themselves \u2013 the Kubik Kollektiv<br><br>The next question was how to make a piece of music through collective improvisation that doesn\u2019t sound random or only vaguely related to the Bauhaus, but rather musically conveys concrete aspects of the Bauhaus, as well as the various phases of the school. The central aspect of our translation into music was sound, by which I mean the choice of instruments and how they\u2019re crafted. Applying experimental performance techniques and alienating effects and preparing the guitar and piano strings and drums with corresponding materials and \u201cobjets trouv\u00e9s\u201d, we met the thematic requirements, like the carpentry or metal workshop. The modular synthesiser and other acoustic equipment express the machine manufacturing and serial production. We also translated the themes we want to talk about and the corresponding subtext into harmonics, scales and rhythmic structures. And finally, for some topics, we needed to structure the instrumental interaction with rules that defined, for example, what complement starts first, which instrument is dominant, and which is the accompaniment, and what predetermined sequence is performed in response to the predecessor\u2019s phrase.

They then met at the studio and performed in this constellation for the first time.<br><br>Thinking about where this session should take place, I envisioned a sound studio with a working atmosphere and room layout much like the Krautrock studios of the 1970s, especially the Inner Space Studio used by the band Can and the Conny Plank Studio, where I made my first recording with Erwin Ditzner on percussion 25 years ago. Unfortunately, both studios no longer exist. They were unique in that there were no room dividers and no soundproof booths for the drums; the entire band recorded all together in one room. All crosstalk over the instrument microphones was also recorded and couldn\u2019t be filtered out in post-production. This working method was important to me because it thrives on the tension of collective improvisation, that not a single note can be taken back. Every scrape, every apparent mistake remains an immutable element of the recording.<br><br>I finally discovered Kommune 2010, a recording studio in Offenbach, where mainly bands go to record music. The large recording room has an impressive acoustic quality thanks to its high ceiling and offers sufficient space to assemble all the musicians along with their respective instruments.<br><br><strong>Adriana Kapsreiter:<\/strong> I\u2019ve always associated \u201cstudio\u201d with the sound studio where we recorded the first season of About Bauhaus. The studio Kommune 2010 in Offenbach, on the other hand, was completely different and something like you\u2019d see in a film from the 1970s about experimental music. Situated inside an old industrial complex with white-washed brick walls and old carpets and a roughshod charm of a former industrial production site.

From this energised atmosphere, we collectively created music that conveyed as many aspects of each corresponding theme as possible from a variety of perspectives.<br><br>The music produced by the Kubik Kollektiv can be characterised as something between jazz, electronic music and Krautrock, and also ventures to extremes, like punk or an improvision born out of a Bach cantata. It was important to us not to play music that could be clearly assigned to a single genre, but rather music that represented a fusion of referenced musical styles. The Bach cantata is played on the saxophone and is accompanied by an analogue e-piano from the 1970s which is then distorted by digital granular effects used today. The punk groove is driven by a synthesiser sequence that evokes associations of the Neue Deutsche Welle but is created with a modern-day modular synthesiser. Building on the various influences and personalities of the participating musicians, Kubik Kollektiv blurred the boundaries between free acoustic jazz and contemporary electronic music to create a stand-alone sound. And ideally, listeners will associate this sound with the Bauhaus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class='wp-block-ho-pattern show-optional-copy' data-pattern='ho\/text-infobox'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-7'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid cf-gutter-5 cf-side-5'>\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-xs-12 col-md-5'>\n\n<div  class='color-bg-highlight color-fg-highlight color-bg-fg-revsersed'>\n\n<div  class='margin-right-2 padding-top-2 padding-bottom-2 margin-left-2'>\n\n<div  class='container-fluid cf-rem-max-width cf-gutter-1 cf-side-1'>\n\n<div  class='row'>\n\n<div  class='col col-md-10 col-xs-10 col-md-offset-1 col-xs-offset-1'>\n\n<div  class='margin-bottom-4 text-align-center margin-top-4'>\t<p class='ho-sd-metadata'>Adriana Kapsreiter hosts the podcast <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/about-bauhaus\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"20597\">About Bauhaus<\/a>, for which the Kubik Kollektiv, founded by Ralf Merten, contributed the music.
