First “Jazzrausch Bigband”, then Bergson Kunstkraftwerk: How the trombonist Roman Sladek became the warmer of the new Munich cultural scene – and why the major project in Aubing is only just beginning.
It is a Sunday that Roman Sladek, the artistic director and managing director of the Bergson Art Power Plant, suggests as the date for the conversation. He takes two hours to talk about this crazy large-scale private sector project in the far west of Munich and about the “Big Bang”, in which, after a gradual opening, its revolutionary concert hall “Elektra Tonquartier” is now being inaugurated. “This is not an end point, this is just the start for us. Now I have to, we have to bring the vision to life,” says Sladek.
