*All the in-between spaces* is a set of sonic performances in dialogue with the architecture and interiors of Megaron, the Athens Concert Hall. During the course of one evening in May, four performances occupy the foyers and intermediate spaces of the vast building complex, ascribing a parallel set of sonic values next to those established by the actual concert halls. In this way the role of architectonic structure and space within the perception of a musical experience is emphasized, and questions are raised about the “ideal” musical environment and the customs and hierarchies that constitute it.

*All the in-between spaces* is part of Listening Space, a documenta 14 project curated by documenta 14 Sound and Music Advisor Paolo Thorsen-Nagel. A coproduction of documenta 14 and The Athens Concert Hall Organization.

Based on central female figures of Greek mythology, Katalin Ladik’s performance features choreography and vocal improvisation as she ascends an oval staircase while following a visual score.
