Music improvisation for four photo shows

Members of the Münsingen Photo Club and some friendly photo clubs provided the organizer with photos from which four series of images were put together. The musician Wieslaw Pipczynski will be able to watch the series shortly before his performances. Afterwards he will freely improvise on his instruments to accompany the ongoing photo shows. He takes on the role of the cinema pianist from the silent film era, but now accompanies still images. We are curious about its sonic associations.
