OSOMO Horizontal Concert in Zürich

The horizontal format changes the usual concert relationship. Attention can turn inward while electronic sound waves and analog textures unfold around the room, followed by a quiet closing stretch.

Bring a mat and settle into an afternoon of listening at Museum für Gestaltung. OSOMO’s Horizontal Concert invites you to follow music through your own thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations, with space to move, rest or simply be still.

Simon Baumann performs his OSOMO solo project for a gathering limited to 84 listeners. Doors open at five in the afternoon, the music starts at a quarter past five, and silence begins at a quarter to seven before the gathering ends at seven. You can follow your own pace through the listening experience; the invitation is to notice what is present for you.

For ages 12 and over. Bring your own lying mat, warm blanket and pillow; warm tea and a journal are optional. Available tickets are CHF 35 for moderate financial flexibility, CHF 39 for a stable income and CHF 49 for those with sufficient means. A CHF 20 ticket is reserved for young students. The CHF 29 reduced and free volunteer tiers were sold out when checked. Prices include taxes. Online ticket sales close at six in the evening on the day of the event, local Zürich time. OSOMO and Museum für Gestaltung present the concert at Ausstellungsstrasse 60, 8005 Zürich.
