| Robert Sukrow - Paul Hubweber |
Robert Sukrow is on many soundtracks the poet's voice actor and he wrote:
(German original below)
Rolf Persch. That is not me. He is not me. Already a common ground. A few years ago, Paul Hubweber introduced me to the witty and sometimes absurd texts of the author Rolf Persch († March 5, 2015). His witticisms, but also some punch lines that only become apparent after a second listen (I myself am not excluded), convinced me to follow Paul's idea of becoming a kind of Persch recitation machine together with him. So we called ourselves the Perschings, freely, yet respectfully, tampered with Persch's works, gave them melody, a new dress, voices, noise. Trombonist and improviser Paul made me sing, disguise voices and scold, made me be a voice for someone who is no longer there and yet is. The project was an enrichment for me. No one is Rolf Persch but Rolf Persch. Video artist Ebba Jahn has created image montages/videos with our sound files that will be shown here with kickoff on Sunday, September 5 and then (for now) every Sunday at 12 noon. But, enough of my words. Sunday is Rolf then, the old plum.
German:
Rolf
Persch. Das bin nicht ich. Er ist nicht ich. Schon eine
Gemeinsamkeit. Vor wenigen Jahren lernte ich durch Paul Hubweber die geistreichen, teils aber auch absurden Texte des
Autoren Rolf Persch († 5. März 2015) kennen. Sein Wortwitz, aber
auch manche Pointe, die sich erst nach dem zweiten Hören erschließt
(Ich selbst schließe mich da nicht aus), überzeugten mich, Pauls
Idee nachzukommen, zusammen mit ihm eine Art Rezitatonsmaschine
Perschs zu werden. So nannten wir uns die Perschings, vergriffen uns
frei, dennoch respektvoll an den Werken Perschs, gaben ihm Melodie,
ein neues Kleid, Stimmen, Geräusch. Posaunist und Improvokateur Paul
brachte mich zum Singen, Stimmen verstellen und Schimpfen, brachte
mich dazu, eine Stimme zu sein für jemand, der nicht mehr da ist und
es doch ist. Das Projekt war eine Bereicherung für mich. Keiner ist
Rolf Persch außer Rolf Persch. Die Videokünstlerin Ebba Jahn hat mit unseren Soundfiles Bildmontagen/Videos geschaffen,
die mit Startschuss am Sonntag, 5. September und dann (vorerst) jeden
Sonntag um 12 Uhr hier gezeigt werden. Aber, genug meiner Worte.
Sonntag ist Rolf dann, die alte Zwetschge.
