2012 release (RARE) ** Card sleeve. Concerto Locale, the first project in Italy by Hannah Weinberger (born in Germany in 1988, lives and works in Basel and Zurich), features forty non-professional performers on May 28th (at 6 pm). They were contacted through the Bureau for Art Nerds network, through word of mouth, and through a relationship, albeit temporary, that shares a common project. At the Milan branch of the Swiss Institute in Rome, Weinberger presents a performance and installation titled Concerto Locale, based on participation and aggregation, which aspires to create a local network based on a shared practice. Each participant is provided with a laptop, software, and a speaker. During the performance, open to the public, they will follow Weinberger's instructions and participate in the composition of a piece played in unison. Each performer will have the opportunity to focus on their piece thanks to a single speaker, but at the same time they will create a concert—if a concert isn't just a group gathered together to perform music, but rather an action carried out simultaneously by multiple individuals, who in turn are part of a local community. The day after the performance, May 29th (at 6:00 PM), a sound installation presenting the results of the performance will be presented, broadcast in a loop across 40 audio channels.
