Hans-Joachim Roedelius
Hans-Joachim Roedelius (b. 1934, Berlin) was a founding member of the Berlin arts lab Zodiak in 1968, followed by the influential band Kluster (later Cluster and Qluster) and Harmonia. With over 2,000 compositions and over 250 releases, he is today a legendary figure, having influenced numerous artists, from Brian Eno to U2.
Creator of the More Ohr Less Festival in Lunz, Austria and Honorary president of the Jazz festival Moving Cultures in Tirana, Albania, Roedelius continues to record and perform, often in collaboration with an international array of cutting-edge musicians.
Hans-Joachim Roedelius' relationship with the Beatrice Wood Center for the Arts dates back to its beginning, when Director Kevin Wallace was introduced to Liam O'Gallagher and Robert Rheem, artists who supported the commission of a sound installation at the Center. The weekend of the sound installation's debut, Roedelius came to perform at the Center, returning a second time to perform and present a workshop for students at the Besant Hill School of Happy Valley. More than a decade after his initial involvement, the Center is pleased to again welcome Hans-Joachim Roedelius, his family, and collaborators, for a panel discussion and performance.
Christopher James Chaplin
British composer and experimental music artist Christopher James Chaplin studied piano with Irene Denereaz in Vevey (Switzerland) before moving to London in the early eighties. In 2009 he was invited by Viennese electronic music label Fabrique Records to collaborate with Thomas Pötz aka Kava on "Seven Echoes", a concept album released and presented live at the well-known Art Brut Museum Gugging in Austria for the first time. There he met electronic music pioneer Hans-Joachim Roedelius who later invited Christopher to take part in a “Late Junction“ live session for BBC Radio 3. The result of this second collaboration eventually led to another collaboration album, "King of Hearts".
In the years that followed Chaplin and Roedelius performed around the world; these were largely improvised performances with Roedelius on piano and electronics, and Chaplin on synthesizers and orchestral samples. They captivated audiences in Paris (Silencio), Rejkjavik (Extrem Chill Festival), Sao Paulo (Sesc Belenzinho), Barcelona (Primavera Festival), Madeira (MMiFF Festival), Berlin (Akademie der Künste), Lunz am See (More Ohr Less Festival) and Vienna (TBA21, Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary) among others.
October 2016 finally saw the release of Christopher Chaplin's highly acclaimed first solo album Je suis le Ténébreux. It was followed by a versatile remix EP the year after, including reworks by producers including Tim Story, Jana Irmert, and Peter Zirbs.
Chaplin's most recent album is Paradise Lost, featuring the American vocalist and poet Leslie Winer and British tenor Nathan Vale. In a powerful soundtrack of winding paths through the (un)conscious, Chaplin again combines experimental electronic with chamber and contemporary music approaches.
Hans-Joachim Roedelius' Tour is Supported by the Federal Chancellery of the Republik of Austria
