school: THE UNQUESTIONED ANSWER

This is a ritual/listening session which celebrates women's music production to highlight gaps in the history of music production.

THE UNQUESTIONED ANSWER*

With another long durational session consisting of 5 DJ sets played by multiple local and international music lovers, school continues to celebrate the musical production of womxn, from the early beginnings until now. One could also say: from the mystical and liturgical chants of the medieval nun Hildegard von Bingen to Meadow Le´ Elle’s operatic punk tracks, produced on iPhone. Being a ritual rather than a party, we point out blanks in the history of musical production, bring rarely heard voices to the foreground and thereby create solid moments that neutralize current affairs and enhance our living reality.
