Kwame Boaten

Kwame Boaten

Kwame is something quite unusual, a collaboration between an African trumpeter and metal musician (Kwame Boaten) and a Swedish guitarist who has previously devoted himself primarily to classical music (Carl Ljungström). They met a few years ago in a music student dormitory in London. This would be the beginning of "Volatile." On the album cover, I see a blurry image of a dark-haired guy with dreadlocks. Yes, I think it's another Swedish hip-hop artist hanging out with Ken and the guys. Oh, Read more [...]

Gottfried Benn

Gottfried Benn

Gottfried Benn (May 2, 1886 in Mansfeld near Putlitz, Prignitz; July 7, 1956 in Berlin) was a German poet, essayist, and physician. He grew up as the son of a theologian in a rectory. After abandoning his theology studies, he successfully completed his medical studies. In 1912, his first volume of poetry, Morgue and Other Poems, was published. It caused a scandal due to its drastic choice of themes and casual expression and immediately made the author known as a representative of the newly emerging Read more [...]

MusiciMedici Orchestra Berlin

The MUSICI MEDICI was founded in 1981 from a chamber music group at the Biochemical Institute of the Humboldt University of Berlin and for many years consisted almost exclusively of medical students. Today, the orchestra has 35 members, about half of whom are physicians, along with other natural scientists and representatives of other disciplines. The proportion of medical students currently stands at about 15 percent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvL-U0Bwsm0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHD_enzF1n4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rg15fbMLWHU Details Read more [...]

Talk to your doctor or psychologist about risks and side effects. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wq_WiV7U5ok https://hieronymus.biz https://www.youtube.com/@andrehieronymus4237 Read more [...]
