LanaLive - Music To Go

Among all public spaces, the mobile space of buses and trains is a very special one: Here, people from the most diverse backgrounds meet, spend time in close proximity – yet often without any real interaction. Digital devices enhance this distance by wrapping each individual in a bubble of isolation.
The art project Music To Go, conceived by Hannes Hölzl and Magdaléna Kobzová, focuses precisely on this: It aims to break open these bubbles for a day and bring train passengers out of their isolation – an exceptional day in public transport.
The intervention introduces a practice to South Tyrol that is part of the cityscape in other parts of the world: music in the train car. For one day, musicians will accompany the train ride from Bolzano to Lana, turning the public space of local transport into a stage for collective experience. The participating musicians are: Laki Colombo Gabrelli, Geschwister Karnutsch, Nico Platter, Trio Samén, and Nartan Savona.

Hannes Hölzl is a musician and media artist. His fields of work include algorithmic compositions, live performances, sound installations, and radio pieces.
Magdaléna Kobzová is a cultural worker from South Tyrol with roots in Slovakia. For over two decades, she has been conceiving artistic encounters, workshops, and exhibitions.
