Hörbar: Matheus Souza & Jan Wegmann / Goran Lazarević / Ayse Glass
Hörbar: Matheus Souza & Jan Wegmann / Goran Lazarević / Ayse Glass Matheus Souza (b. 1997) is a composer, improviser, and performer from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. His work centers on the composition and performance of electroacoustic music and on free improvisation, spanning a wide range of formats, including solo live electronics, acousmatic music, audiovisual, and mixed music compositions. As an improviser, he has collaborated with visual artists, dancers, and musicians across diverse genres such as experimental, jazz, contemporary, and ambient music. After earning a diploma in Violin Performance from the Villa-Lobos Institute (UNIRIO), Matheus completed his Master's in Contemporary Performance and Composition (CoPeCo) in 2024, with the CNSMD de Lyon as his home institution, under the guidance of Michele Tadini and Jean Geoffroy. As part of the CoPeCo program, he participated at Erasmus exchanges at leading institutions across Europe, including the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre, the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, and the Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Hamburg. He received training in composition with Helena Tulve, in performance and live electronics with Taavi Kerikmäe, and in free improvisation with Vlatko Kučan, Theodore Parker, and Claudine Simons. Currently, Matheus is pursuing a DNSPM in Contemporary Composition (Mixed Music) under Michele Tadini. Jan Wegmann (*1992 in Stuttgart) is a multimedia artist, composer and performer from Hamburg. Their work focuses on small details, giving them space to unfold and showing overlaps and tensions between different materials. They create drifting structures of layers, sometimes abstract, sometimes ironic, but always combined with the goal of a holistic and concentrated result. Jan’s compositions often have a performative component, exploring the expressive power and presence of a person on a stage or in a performance context. To realize their work Jan combines various influences and skills and uses a multitude of resources, self-programmed software tools, hardware synthesizers, controllers or sensors. They use found material, sounds, videos, texts, or 3D/VR visuals and work together with other artists to create immersive atmospheres that fill the space and challenge the perception of the audience. https://wegmann.digital/ Ayse Glass ist eine Musikerin/Sängerin/Songwriterin aus Izmir.
