FRIENDS OF THE WOLF TONE - The Berlin Meeting

The Friends of the Wolf Tone are musicians, artists, and researchers dedicated to exploring the phenomenon known as the "wolf tone" in music and beyond. Departing from the need to challenge the standards of Western music, they engage in various howling-esque activities, thereby exploring the figure of the wolf as a recurrent
symbol of fear, deviation or resistance.Centres of interest range from the myth of Lycaon, via Disney villains, up to the recent return of wolves to public consciousness - from their re-introduction to wildlife sanctuaries and amidst political fear-mongering.

For the Berlin Meeting, the friends give insights into their wolf related practices and share their recent work in an (at times buzzing) environment that combines installations, a lecture performance, a series of “toasts to howling” and a concert featuring inside piano, violin, theremin, cello, electronics and voices.
