Stepha Schweiger – my interdisciplinary musical theatre and current compositions
How it all began: Experimental musical theatre, Anti-imperialist compositions, Social interaction, Reduction, Noise
I have always been enthralled by the world of musical theatre: As a child, I used to dream up performances to compensate for my sense of “otherness”. By the age of 20, I dared to fantasise that I wanted to study composition and direction. Having moved to Berlin by 1989, I became involved with experimental musical theatre and developed interdisciplinary music theatre pieces based on textual instructions, such as the 60-minute long “1au9tu9mn3” for 4 variable instrumentalists/performers and a dancer/performer (1993, commissioned by the Berlin Senate for the Sponsorship of Artists, performed at the Kulturbrauerei/Kunstquartier Bethanien), or the 89-minute long “Ashra”, texts by Kabir, for a singer, performer and two percussionists (1995, commissioned by Dezentrale Kulturarbeit Berlin-Schöneberg, performed at Crellestrasse Studio/Philipp Melanchthon).
In doing so, I was primarily motivated by a desire to discard the imperialist mindset in composing: The performers evolve their own actions and are not restricted to a prescribed notation. This contagious energy spreads to the audience, and they too come up with ideas. As is the case with “Envelopes”, where a solo performance is determined by the spontaneous drawing of action cards, whereby the audience regard themselves as part of the performance. The performers distribute blank paper cards and search for something hidden amongst the audience, as well as displaying objects and proclaiming the words “society” or “nature” aloud, along with other actions prescribed by the cards. This way, the participating “visitors” become empowered to also be active on a digital level, to give feedback, to influence the performance or get inspired to start something they have never done before.
The interlocking of voices became another structural element of my compositions. Just like in a real social network, which a forest is, this performed “intertwining activity” laps over into the audience, stimulating them to become an active part of this network on an emotional, mental and physical level. To enable this, I use the stage and audience space so that the members of the audience sit or move in the performance area at the same time as the actual performers.
Reduction and industrial also shape my music: Even then back in the early days, I shunned the superfluous, just like the aesthetic I subsequently discovered in the music of Eric Satie and John Cage. In doing so, I have taken up arms – shoulder to shoulder with Jean Cocteau – against “humanity’s grave problems that have never been tackled”. This I do in the form of noise as acoustic aggression, as in Act III of the interdisciplinary musical theatre “The Mark on the Wall” (2017), where the textual basis from Virginia Woolf revolves around war and burial mounds. With a similar state of mind and expression, I developed “ver-blich” for a performer as a double bass player and live/fixed electronics at the IRCAM in Paris in 2001 / revised version for the Steirischer Herbst Festival in 2018. The themes addressed here range from individual trauma to the trauma of society as a whole.
Ongoing obsessions: Tuning, Process, Ready-made, Sustainability:
Furthermore, such direct emotion finds expression in sound structures of a seemingly fragile nature, just like in “The Mark on the Wall”, where the string instruments in Acts III - IV are retuned to the natural pitch spectrum in a surprisingly delicate way.
Searching for the natural overtone spectrum is a fragile act, similar to trying to revive the primordial nature of our planet. I first stepped foot in this thrilling world of microtonality as a child when comparing the tuning of different instruments. I am motivated by a desire to transform this listening experience into a digital one in which everyone can participate, in other words, to hand over the power that lies in this experimentation and searching directly to the audience and wait for a response. When working, I attach great importance to two-way communication as opposed to the customary monologue.
The natural sound symbolises a green world combating destruction, as seen in “The Mark on the Wall”, where the protagonist in Act V – once natural tuning has been enforced – drifts away in a daydream into the middle of paradise-like nature, totally oblivious to her surroundings, a state of mind that could also appeal to people communicating in a digital space.
I want to make political statements to highlight issues close to my heart, such as gender equality, social justice and climate activism, using the most progressive contemporary methods available. As a means of implementation, I am interested in all things of a processual essence, sometimes supported by slowness as a hypnotic movement. It is important to me that people are willing to engage in something that demands more than half an hour of their time – that everybody can gain an insight for themselves (within their own four walls) as a basic ingredient for living in an enlightened and democratic world!
I defined a new notation system in 2019 consisting of ready-mades, whose structures are interpreted and implemented based on sustainability. There are two types of these in the musical theatre composition “Rook Song” (2019, commissioned by Pyramidale Berlin): The “already destroyed” are played with mere silence – or in exceptional cases with sparse music from the imperialist pool of sound from former centuries – while the “still untouched, natural” are interpreted with delicate sounds interspersed with theatrical actions, not just on stage but across the entire venue and with audience participation.
The road ahead:
My musical theatres are developed as a process aimed at creating new viewpoints, such as in “Rook Song”, where performers in the form of primeval people first follow the primeval raven from the primeval forest into the steppe lands, and then stride through time to the present day, or in “Koi Song”, where a woman, in accordance with Japanese tradition, is only allowed to stay at home, and then takes to the streets as a suffragette/demonstrator/feminist.
I aim to implement and continue these processes, and the viewpoints gained, as a force that is amplified via various elements using new (digital) media. The occurrence of several moments in a single moment, in various places and locations, be it in the theatre or/and at home: In a new musical theatre (2023), final moments are superimposed, emerging from the process. Which moments, of which we are still unaware, will be added to the mix? Many things are possible in the digital space. My works also evolve as an overall process. Here I want to further explore the (digital) theatre space by letting it become a private space and vice versa, without fundamentally challenging the theatre form!

press clippings excerpts
»New music from Berlin, compellingly Mansfield - Through the art-pop of her new project, she merges her penchant for indie-pop with an openness towards improvisational experiments: songs that are well-rounded, often almost haunting, replete with many barbs. Just as ethereal as they are urgent – opening up a myriad of ways of tuning in.« (taz Berlin, 2022)
»Wild and darkly rampant Krautjazz songs« (Rolling Stone, 2022)
»The result [is] magnificent. Whether as a tender pop song like the title track, or delicate, gripping indie rock like ‘Gray’s Inn Road’ or sometimes as a SiSo-style, withdrawn, but always enormously powerful ArtPop with a jazz feeling like in ‘Pitiful God’ – even a few free jazz sax snippets casually interspersed in a KrautPostPsychAvantPop amalgam work a treat (‘Revelation’). And Schweiger’s versatile voice towers above it all.« (5 out of 5 points, Westzeit, 2022)
»Featherlight summer sounds. The new album from the Berlin-based composer and singer Stepha Schweiger sounds dreamy and poppy with a slight hint of psychedelia. Her striking voice, which Schweiger liberally sprinkles between the synthesizer sounds, lends the perfect measure of authenticity. A magical summertime experiment in sound.« (Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung 2020)
»...The Berliner with her distinctive voice is traversing dark untrodden paths between chamber pop, electronic noise, jazz and art music. Her new album is a bow to Katherine Mansfield, ... A deep, dramatic and enriching "piece of art"...« (Flight13, 2019)
»It is the composition that actually provides the elementary lifesoil for this stream of thoughts, as it flows through primeval depths and naturalism along the crumbling edges of a society in a state of change. Stepha Schweiger permits the ensemble to breathe, sense and soar, to become consummate in space.« (Süd-West-Presse, 2018)
»Music between upheaval and a retro effect, between evident delight in experimentation and a classic trim. ... Schweiger enhances the suspensive tension of sensually tender sound clusters to a melodiousness almost reminiscent of the free jazz experiments in the 1970s, one that lures us with its irresistible groove.« (Augsburger Allgemeine, 2018)
»Stepha Schweiger has composed a web of sounds more minimalistic in effect, one that emerges in a shimmer and with fine-spun tensions from her unique transformation of Virginia Woolf’s textual flow.« (nmz - neue musikzeitung, 2017)
