contribution # 4 | IN BLAUEM KRISTALL | lunyala trio

lucia mense (flutes), cora schmeiser (voice) and dietmar bonnen (keys and percussion) mix dadaïstic texts with contemporary- and medieval repertory. _they make use of vocals, steel drum, udu, recorders and casio to take out a fine number of delicacies from the music box of pandora, featuring compositions by oswald von wolkenstein, hildegard von bingen, philip glass, tom johnson, isang yun & dietmar bonnen and improvisations on words by richard hülsenbeck, hugo ball and georg trakl. _in november 2012, mense, schmeiser and bonnen ran across each other in the kolumba museum in cologne and decided to convert their shared ideas as the lunyala trio into sound.
