The Sound Legacy Project II: Creating Across Generations

Every sound carries a lineage. Across Berlin and beyond, musicians are building on traditions passed down through families, scenes and diaspora communities, while creating work that speaks to their own zeitgeist.
This session explores how sound, knowledge and values travel between generations. How do artists honour where their music comes from while finding their own voice? What role do collectives, open stages and mentors play in that exchange? And what do today’s artists want to pass on to the next generation?
Drawing on personal creative journeys, the conversation reflects on heritage, community and what it takes to build a musical legacy that keeps growing.
