Part of
musikprotokoll 2010

Since their foundation in 2003, ”State of Sabotage”, who opened a temporary embassy in Graz at steirischer herbst in 2007, have commissioned and performed fifteen interpretations of their own anthem – among others by Christian Fennesz, the RSO, the Beggars’ Operas and the US Army Choir. The artists at this year’s musikprotokoll are invited to interpret a short piece of the SoS state anthem at the start of their performance, without having rehearsed it. The individual parts will become a signature, a stately accompaniment for the programme. At the end of the festival, recordings of these fragments will be cut and pasted to create a new version of the anthem.
