Heroines of Sound Edition No. 4: Else Marie Pade

Anniversary concert to mark her 100th birthday: Respectfully referred to by her followers as the grandmother of techno and celebrated as a Danish pioneer of musique concrète, Pade has played a pioneering role in the field of electronic music.

Her personal career is just as remarkable. At the age of sixteen, Pade joined the only resistance group in Denmark led exclusively by women. In 1944 - she was just 19 years old - the Gestapo picked her up from her parents' house and she was transferred to the prison camp in Frøslev. She did forced labor here until the end of the German occupation in May 1945. Pade scratched her composition sketches into the cell walls, composing became her survival strategy, and throughout her life she remained a versatile, creative and alert artist.Else Marie Pade would have been 100 years old on December 2, 2024.

To mark this occasion, Heroines of Sound and the Zafraan Ensemble are dedicating themselves to the artistic exploration of her life and work and thus to the further dissemination of her oeuvre, especially her chamber music.

Eintritt: ab 11 Euro bis 16 Euro.

Die Veranstaltung ist barrierefrei.
