MIT ECHTEN SINGEN
Tanja Krone & Friedrich Greiling
30 years after reunification, performer and musician Tanja Krone sets off for Chemnitz and talks to her former classmates, teachers, friends and family: what was actually going on in 89/90? In her search for connections between the past and present, the unheard emerges in the landscape of her youth. Real poetry in real existing capitalism… Together with musician Friedrich Greiling, Krone brings together the “real” voices of that time to create a new musical fabric. Pop, rock, techno, disco or trance – no one knows exactly what it is, but in 2024, listening carefully seems more important than ever.
