Berliner Mauerweg: Schönefeld to Sigridshorst (22 km)

I continued the Berliner Mauerweg. In fact, I did the next leg across two days: I originally wanted to do this 22 kilometres but during the first day, I was just so bored, even though the weather was actually good. So I just did half of it, about 11 kilometres. And I picked up the remaining half the following weekend.

Mamlok, Modarresifar, Boulez, Lee, Kurtág, Staud, Illés

One summer day, I found myself once again in the Werner-Otto-Saal of the Konzerthaus Berlin. Indeed, I was back here for another avant-garde chamber recital, this time by violiist Rachel Kolblyakov as well as by the Track3 Ensemble, consisting of clarinet, viola, and piano. They happen to be the latest recipients of a prize by the Dwight and Ursula Mamlok Foundation, and this was a concert held in this occasion. And yes, it featured several modern and contemporary pieces.

Ein Volksfeind

Recently, I found myself once again in the Schaubühne, where I caught Thomas Ostermeier’s famous staging of Henrik Ibsen's Ein Volksfeind (An Enemy of the People). It is an incredible piece of theatre!

Berlin Boogie: Open House at the Hamburger Bahnhof

I have been to the Hamburger Bahnhof a few times before - the first time was actually in 2013. I remember liking the things that I saw back then. And I remember being there a couple more times when friends were visiting town. This time, I learned that they were hosting an Open House, and entrance was free. So I visited once again.
