Lesung mit Musik zum 25. Todestag von Ernst Jandl
Ernst Jandl (1925–2000) war ein österreichischer Dichter, der mit seinen innovativen Sprachexperimenten die traditionelle Poesie radikal erneuerte. Seine Gedichte rücken den Klang und die Struktur der Sprache in den Mittelpunkt. Jandl spielte meisterhaft mit Lauten, Wörtern und Silben, um neue, überraschende Bedeutungen zu erzeugen. Werke wie »schtzngrmm« oder »ottos mops« zeigen, wie er Sprache auf ihre elementaren Bausteine reduziert und diese neu arrangiert, um ungewöhnliche poetische Effekte zu erzielen. Oft humorvoll und manchmal absurd, erschließen seine Texte tiefere Einsichten in die Funktionsweise der Sprache. Indem Jandl grammatikalische und syntaktische Normen bewusst bricht, schafft er eine poetische Form, die sowohl spielerisch als auch intellektuell anspruchsvoll ist. Trotz ihrer Experimentierfreudigkeit sind seine Gedichte nie bedeutungslos: Sie reflektieren gesellschaftliche Themen wie Krieg, Machtstrukturen und die Entfremdung des modernen Menschen. In dieser musikalischen Lesung von Ernst Jandls Gedichten verweben sich die Rezitationen von Manuel Karadeniz und die virtuosen Akkordeonklänge von Daniel Zacher zu einem fein abgestimmten Wechselspiel. In Daniel Zachers Eigenkompositionen verschmelzen musikalische Raffinesse und emotionale Tiefe zu einem intensiven Klangerlebnis. Seine Akkordeonklänge verleihen den Texten eine zusätzliche Dimension und bestärken die emotionale Wirkung der sprachlichen Darbietungen von Manuel Karadeniz.Reading with music on the 25th anniversary of Ernst Jandl's death
Ernst Jandl (1925–2000) was an Austrian poet who radically renewed traditional poetry with his innovative language experiments. His poems put the sound and structure of language at the center. Jandl masterfully played with sounds, words, and syllables to create new, surprising meanings. Works such as "schtzngrmm" or "ottos mops" show how he reduces language to its elemental building blocks and rearranges them to achieve unusual poetic effects. Often humorous and sometimes absurd, his texts open up deeper insights into the functioning of language. By consciously breaking grammatical and syntactic norms, Jandl creates a poetic form that is both playful and intellectually demanding. Despite their experimental nature, his poems are never meaningless: they reflect societal themes such as war, power structures, and the alienation of modern man. In this musical reading of Ernst Jandl's poems, the recitations by Manuel Karadeniz and the virtuosic accordion sounds of Daniel Zacher intertwine to create a finely tuned interplay. In Daniel Zacher's original compositions, musical sophistication and emotional depth blend into an intense sound experience. His accordion sounds add an extra dimension to the texts and reinforce the emotional impact of Manuel Karadeniz's linguistic performances.
She is considered one of the least influential artists of her generation... and has made a name for herself as "the no-hit wonder from the Bavarian Forest": The fearless KARIN RABHANSL creates darkly colorful singer-songwriter music in High German and Lower Bavarian, and sometimes in English if urgency demands it.
Lyrically, it’s about winners and losers, monsters and superheroes, loneliness, farewells, and betrayed dreams. It’s about the ride of life and the understanding that the world is not inherently good or bad, but often just a tricky place – strange and beautiful yet filled with pitfalls and shallows.
The keyword is: DIALECT RIOT! "I am a guitar girl," says the Lower Bavarian girl with the colorful striped stockings, who refuses to be pigeonholed stylistically yet knows exactly where she comes from and what she wants. No worries: Despite the sometimes dark undertones, we can envision KARIN RABHANSL as a happy person.
