*3k is the recent­ly found­ed col­lec­tive of Mari­ka Rain­er (vocals), Sab­ri­na Fra­ter­nali (dance) and Michèle Schlade­bach (piano and com­po­si­tion) from Brix­en. They want to bring their three arts togeth­er in joint per­for­mances and bring them to life with all the sens­es.
“Un rêve asper” — a short per­for­mance about the fleet­ing nature of dream­ing — is their sec­ond joint project after “Sta­bat Mater getanzt”.

After win­ning the audi­ence prize in the young tal­ent com­pe­ti­tion in 2024, we were allowed to devel­op “Die Düntzer Rhap­sodie” into a full-length play!

29th decem­ber 2024 (18 pm) Teatro San Gia­co­mo Bolzano

Sta­bat Mater in motion is ded­i­cat­ed to the per­for­mance of Per­gole­si’s Sta­bat Mater for two voic­es and a dancer, musi­cal­ly arranged for piano and elec­tron­ic sounds and per­formed in an inti­mate set­ting.
Although death and mourn­ing are often ignored in mod­ern soci­ety, the con­fronta­tion remains unavoid­able. We have the abil­i­ty to catch each oth­er. In a dia­log between song, dance and music, the per­for­mance aims to encour­age mutu­al care.

Con­cept: 3k*
Chore­og­ra­phy: Sab­ri­na Fra­ter­nali
Per­form­ers: Sab­ri­na Fra­ter­nali (dance), Mari­ka Rain­er, Fritz Spen­gler (voic­es & move­ments)
Music and sound: Michèle Schlade­bach

*3k is a Brix­en-based col­lec­tive found­ed by Mari­ka Rain­er (vocals), Sab­ri­na Fra­ter­nali (dance) and Michèle Schlade­bach (piano and com­po­si­tion) that com­bines the three arts in joint per­for­mances with a holis­tic approach.

Sun­day, 30th July 2023 at 6:30 pm // Währinger­park, 1180 Vienna

Great art to great sor­row!
A scenic song recital cen­tred around Schu­man­n’s “Dichter­liebe”.
With piano pieces from the “Kinder­szenen” and the “Kreis­le­ri­ana” as well as select­ed love let­ters.

July 21st, 10:30 am
Mühlschüt­tel­park, 1210 Vien­na

with Mari­ka Rain­er (voice & singing) and Dieter Stem­mer (piano & sounds)

Mira Lobe with sound! Mari­ka reads from her favourite Mira Lobe books and Dieter draws with sounds: he switch­es between piano and mix­ing desk and illus­trates what he hears live and off the cuff. When he does this in a very inspir­ing and amus­ing way, it can hap­pen that he inspires Mari­ka to sing or to hit the mix­ing desk keys…
