Anthony Hüseyin invites the audience into a musical landscape shaped by transformation, memory,
and resistance.
At the core of the program is Project O — a transdisciplinary body of work that unfolds as a
personal and artistic quest around gender, voice, and belonging. Centered around the Turkish
pronoun “O,” which holds “he,” “she,” and “it” at once, the work moves in cycles without
beginning or end, tracing a return to childhood, to memory, and to the formation of a nonbinary self.
Through voice as a spectrum, Project O dismantles fixed identities and reclaims sound as a site of
becoming.
Emerging from this ground, O Biçim Şarkılar / O Shaped Songs and hOpe Shaped Songs shift the
focus toward questions of home, freedom, identity, and belonging. Set against the backdrop of
Berlin and its realities as a city of migration, these works expose the tension between the promise of
safety and the lived experience of exclusion. Through a nonbinary lens, they navigate displacement,
language, and the fragile construction of belonging within contemporary immigrant politics.
The program also includes excerpts from Crime of Passion, an experimental opera that confronts
the historical and ongoing romanticization of violence. Drawing from personal biography and
operatic canon, the work traces the roots of femicide within cultural and legal systems, while
refusing the repetition of death assigned to bodies on stage. Instead, it reclaims voice, agency, and
survival.
Circling across these works are gestures of love, grief, and transformation — where music becomes
a space to question, to mourn, and to reimagine, and where the personal insistently meets the
political.
