July 16, 2011, the workshop that had been going on for a whole week in Alsdorf resulted in a concert at the venue Energeticon. Selected songs by local artists were arranged by the composers Nackt, Ben Lauber and Nils Tegen for the string quartet Qvartiett and other classical musicians. Together with the artists the new renditions were rehearsed and recorded during a five-day workshop and then performed. In addition, a sound art work called Energeticon was developed by sounds and impressions from the building. The soundscape written by Helena Persson was performed as an improvisation along with the orchestra, conducted by Ben Lauber.
Energeticon was released on the The Aachen String Theory record and you can listen to the piece on Soundcloud. Click here!
