The GTwNFN in the announcement of August 9, 2015:
Sounds like cracks in space and time, clouded by electrons like fireflies ... in the GTwNFN three guitarists of the new improvised music have united.
Grigg processes his guitar sounds with self-made electronics, Hirt has largely relocated the shaping of his sound to the computer, Kolberg creates his sounds through preparations. Together they form a body of sound of breathtaking intensity.

8. Showcase-Concert:
Final Contemporary Concert with Special Guest Gregor Bohnensack

the best comes last:
the well-known performance and sound artist Gregor Bohnensack from Münster is our guest!

He has been an integral part of the "independent scene" of Münster for decades, and has dealt with the tension between language and music for at least as long. Most recently he appeared in Münster with the Corona Performances.

Literature, unusual compositions and exciting improvisations, the eighth Showcase-Concert and the last one in this series promises special art enjoyment again.

Guitar Trio with No Fancy Name

is a set of three Münster-based guitarists aligned to free improv, noise and string theory. Lumped space burbles from scratching fingers, plastic triangles and HAL’s creeped Rechnungings. It’s Matthew Grigg, Erhard Hirt and Michael Kolberg who move the particles in this great trio.

Hans W. Koch und Michael Kolberg

Met at the weekend Hans W. Koch  and performed with him on Jun 1, 2014 . Has been a very special moment. Actually, the date should be a workshop in the SOUNDSEEING V -series, but I've been the only participant. Hans and I got along very well and given an spontaneously duo concert with his instruments.

There has been a very wonderful press article (in German) about the concert on May 3, 2014  at the Kleiner Bühnenboden  ...
