Beatrice Hilke, Curator, will guide you through the anniversary exhibition Wo ich wohne. Admission is included in the exhibition ticket.

Songs of Erosion is a project by Clara Levy and Victor Guaita Igual that offers a contemporary reinterpretation of the Cantigas de Santa María. This expansive collection from late 13th-century Spain comprises 420 songs, along with legends, historical accounts, medicinal remedies, and scenes of courtly love. The musicians treat this manuscript—straddling the sacred and the popular—as an archaeological artifact, interpreting it through a set of instructions inspired by the geological process of erosion. Among the Cantigas explored by the duo, Songs of Erosion focuses on two, articulated through the concepts of sedimentation and landslide: With Alluvium, the musicians reflect on repetition as a process of both sedimentation and renewal, while Landslide offers a haunting take on instability as a generative force. Designed as a collaborative and evolving space, the project explores different scales of time – geological, biological, historical, and musical –, as it asks: what is left of these 800 years old songs?

Duration: 60 minutes (without intermission)
