Edition 2026 — Coming Soon

Sound or Not is a festival organised and curated by Modelo62. Following the spirit from Mieko Shiomi’s text score piece “Boundary Music” (1963), this festival of three days features performances that test, blur, and playfully transgress the boundaries of what music can be.
Across these days you’ll encounter music-theater, works from the wide canon of experimental music, and interdisciplinary pieces resulting from our collaborations with diverse makers.
We will end the festival with a performance for children and families, where our youngest audience members will explore the universe of sounds and make music alongside the ensemble.
Spend these three days at the boundary with us, to explore the threshold between sound and non-sound, between music and everything else.
