In their series „Chimeras“, Berlin PianoPercussion perform works that musically take up the term, which comes from Greek mythology, in different ways. In the ancient imagination, a monstrous hybrid of lion, goat and dragon, modern biology understands a chimera to be an organism made up of genetically different cells, which is nevertheless a uniform individual. In common parlance, chimera stands for illusion, dream or sensory illusion, but can also refer to a hyperreal vision of distant future realities. For Berlin PianoPercussion and Martin Smith (cello), the artistic reflection of this ambiguity is the focus of the second concert.
