Maximilian Marcoll

From April 2021 he has worked as a professor of electroacoustic composition and sound art at the Bauhaus University Weimar.

[1] Residencies have taken him to CMMAS in Morelia, ICST in Zurich, Künstlerhaus Lukas in Ahrenshoop, and the Institute for Electronic Music and Acoustics (iem) in Graz.

Marcoll's piece "Adhan" for Carillon and Tape, written in 2015 but not premiered in its original form, attracted some attention.

The concerts planned for Whitsun 2015 on the Carillon in Berlin's Tiergarten were cancelled after the carillonist refused to perform the piece, which had been commissioned for this occasion.

[6][7] Up to this day "Adhan" was performed exclusively in a special indoor version for a church in Berlin-Schöneberg.

The possibilities of interference span a large variety of movements, from almost inaudibly slow fadings to extremely fast and brutal chopping.

For this purpose, Marcoll transforms the amplification levels into two-dimensional graphics, which have been exhibited at the gallery "Lage Egal" in Berlin, among other places.
