lovemusic returns to Gaudeamus with two concerts. On the final day of the festival they present their programme Protest of the Physical, with four pieces in which the performers’ bodies are not merely vehicles for playing instruments, but intrinsically intertwined with the music and highlighting how gesture shapes our listening experience. By incorporating artists from different disciplines into the creative process, questioning the role of the audience itself, and using the body as an expressive tool of communication, the collective seeks to reclaim their position as unique performers on stage, rather than replaceable “instrumentalists”.

collective lovemusic is this years’ focus ensemble at Gaudeamus Festival and is an emerging ensemble / Ulysses Artist within the Ulysses Platform.
