Concert performance presented in the framework of the program „Sound in Motion” at Kunstmuseum Stuttgart, 2016

“Imagine War” is a concert performance based on a repertoire of covers with slightly modified, or more precisely “updated” lyrics. The 10-song compilation is a selection of well-known hits from the 60s and 70s. The musical interpretation leaves the songs recognisable, but the recognisability of the lyrics is misleading. We don’t actually hear what we think we hear from memory. Although the lyrics are transcriptions with minimal formal interventions, the substitution of a few significant words results in a complete transformation of the content.
