what is detect?
Originating from the idea of being a platform for inspiring and unconventional musical experiences, Detect today consists of various music culture projects - first and foremost the Detect Classic Festival, which is organised together with the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
Other formats include the Detect Landpartie, the Detect Classic Sessions and a music residency programme in northern Germany. We realise our projects together with the Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern as well as with kfka (Switzerland) and Ein Ding der Möglichkeit (Wendland).

detect lab
Together with Ein Ding der Möglichkeit, a co-creation space on an old farm in northern Germany, we are realising residencies for musicians and music makers. At the end of the residency, the residents and neighbours have the opportunity to experience the developed materials live.
detect ensemble
With their backgrounds in contemporary music, classical music and jazz, six musicians explore musical communication channels: The Detect Ensemble has set itself the task of creating content that combines the qualities of different art music worlds, with the courage to embrace complexity and artistic innovation through a profound co-creation process.
