[vc_row el_class=”full_row”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Soundpainting is a sign language for live composition conceived by Walter Thompson in the 70s. One of his collaborators, Hada Benedito, created the first Soundpainting orchestra in Berlin in June 2012. Since then, they have performed not only as a ensemble, but also playing on silent movies, working together with visual artists, and other orchestras around the world.

The Berlin Soundpainting Orchestra, whom I joined in 2013,  consists of 16 musicians, improvisers and composers, all coming from different backgrounds and countries. Their live-composed works could be described as expansive way of traveling among improvisation and avant-garde music beyond contemporary jazz.
