SPACES in Schwerin: An evening of concert between silence, depth, and vibrating sound spaces
On October 21, 2026, Wolfgang Torkler on piano and René Bornstein on double bass will transform werk3 / KlangWert in Schwerin into a concentrated resonance space. Their duo project SPACES combines decelerated piano music with improvisational jazz aesthetics and an unusual sound dramaturgy.
Reduction as musical strength
Since five solo albums and one trio album, Wolfgang Torkler has consistently followed the path of reduction. The focus is not on musical overload or spectacular effects, but on the precisely placed note, long tension arcs, and the intense impact of immediate sound. This concentration creates a live atmosphere where even small changes can unfold a great emotional impact.
Piano and double bass in dialogue
Torkler develops a new sound cosmos for SPACES together with René Bornstein. The piano and double bass meet not as classical accompaniment but as equal voices. Between warm bass tones, open chords, and finely tuned synchronization, an organic dialogue emerges with plenty of space for breath, reverberation, and spontaneous musical twists.
Acoustic samples and organic loops
The stage performance gains special color through acoustic samples and loops. The bowing of the double bass, pedal noises, or breath sounds are integrated into the composition and expand the acoustic spectrum. Thus, classical playing techniques, modern sound design, and jazz-related improvisation merge into a sound that is intimate, open, and surprising at the same time.
A concert experience for open ears
SPACES is aimed at everyone who wants to not only hear music but experience it in its development. The audience mood arises from the closeness of the two musicians, the special acoustics of the small venue, and a dramaturgy that relies not on volume but on depth. Every note carries weight, every pause becomes part of the musical narrative.
Conclusion: Schwerin experiences music in a concentrated format
The concert by Wolfgang Torkler and René Bornstein promises an evening full of fine nuances, warm sound colors, and unusual acoustic details. Those who appreciate reduced piano music, modern jazz, and intense duo performances will experience a concert with particular intimacy at werk3 / KlangWert.
