Late Night – Simon Höfele and Kaan Bulak in the Kurtheater: Sound Worlds Conquer Bad Kissingen

Sound Colors at Night: Trumpet, Piano, and Electronics in Ecstasy

A late-stage experience with a captivating effect: the award-winning trumpeter Simon Höfele meets the Berlin composer and sound artist Kaan Bulak. In the Kurtheater Bad Kissingen, a theatrical atmosphere unfolds between club, chamber music, and sound laboratory – intense, intimate, and acoustically precise.

No Clouds in Haraz: Music as a Journey

The production of the concert evening focuses on musical dramaturgy instead of stage action: Höfele's smooth tone production and Bulak's shimmering electronics weave together to create an organic sound image. The program title refers to the Yemeni Haraz Mountains – a poetic starting point for an acoustic journey that transcends geographical and musical boundaries. The audience experiences finely sculpted transitions, micro-fine changes in density, and a lighting mood that softly emphasizes the contours of the Art Nouveau space.

Chamber Music Meets Club Aesthetics

Without a break, the duo intensifies the tension arc. Höfele's breath control carries long cantilenas, while Bulak expands his piano through prepared resonances, synthesizers, and subtly pulsating beats. This creates stage art between contemporary music and the electronic sound language of Berlin – present, physical, immediate.

Sensuous Details: Space, Sound, Reaction

The neo-baroque hall of the Kurtheater (built in 1904/05) amplifies the transparency: warm wood reflections, clear localization, an elegant fading away. Typical audience reaction: tense silence, then long applause – a sign of how precisely this direction of sounds sharpens the listening experience.

Voices of the Fans

The reactions of theater lovers are unequivocal: No Clouds in Haraz captivates the audience.
