Martin Kalberer follows up last year's double CD / double LP SUONO with a new EP

The suite 'morgenland' was created, a reflection in five parts which are valid as a whole as well as in their individual parts.
There have been many new thoughts and emotions in these five titles, and quite unintentionally - but inevitably - the main theme of the EP has emerged - everything revolves around movement, change, destruction, migration, escape, arriving, new beginnings.
For example, the title 'gibellina' is dedicated to a place in Italy that was completely destroyed by an earthquake, then was decayed for decades, and finally was resurrected through an art project, giving it a completely new destiny and thus a new life. This peculiarly ambivalent mood has inevitably challenged equally opposing musical emotions.
Current events also call for a (first of all musical) opinion, and so 'aleppo' is the expression of my horrified speechlessness in the face of the humanitarian disaster in Syria.
With 'found again (reprise)' I took up a theme from SUONO, which I varied, expanded and re-recorded.
For this title and 'gibellina' I created videos, but not by putting together music and pictures afterwards, but by capturing the exact moment, in which the recording was created, which is also the same on the CD. This was very important to me, because with all the technical possibilities - which I always try and use - the unique moment in which things are adding up, simply happen, surprise myself - are what I am looking for.
