A compelling fusion of colour impressions and a listening experience into a single encompassing sensory epiphany – this spark of inspiration moved the Duesseldorf composer of electronic music Thomas Kessler (*1962) and the Cologne saxophonist Bernd Winterschladen (*1960) to join forces in their latest musical endeavour.
 
The resulting evocative compositions each take up and intepret a shade of colour from “Les claviers de couleurs” – the ‘colour keyboards’ of the visionary French-Swiss architect Le Corbusier (1887 – 1965). These intriguingly embody his unique theory regarding colours and their singular effect upon the human psyche.

This video shows the documentation of a very unique multimedia event exclusively created by Le Son des Couleurs for the German/Netherland Muziek Biennale festival in September 2018, recorded live at Villa V, a 1930 original residential building from the Bauhaus era (architect: Bernhard Pfau, 1902 -1989), currently run by Gerda-Marie Voss not only as an art gallery but also a meeting spot for communication on art and culture.
