Composer Beat Furrer and artist and choreographer Isabel Lewis are working together for the first time. Together they are exploring the human voice. For them, the voice is more than just sound – it is like a space. The vocal ensemble Cantando Admont, directed by Cordula Bürgi, sings in this work. It is accompanied by a saxophone, which sounds very similar to the human voice. The singers move through the top floor of a multi-storey car park in Nuremberg. The audience also moves with them – hearing and seeing create a special connection between sound and space. The music installation in the car park also explores how music can create closeness or distance. It shows how voices, bodies and the city enter into a relationship – and combines old and new music in the process.
Isabel Lewis is an artist and professor. She lives in Berlin and Vienna. She develops special events that she calls “occasions”. She mixes music, movement and social encounters.
Beat Furrer has long worked with the idea that sound works not only through time, but also through space. Sound spaces open up that slowly change.


The music installation with Isabel Lewis & Beat Furrer is supported by the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia.
With the kind support of PS Parkhaus Service Nürnberg GmbH.
