“Akkordarbeit” Brings spontaneous Musical Joy to Kiel
Kiel, Germany – The musical duo “Akkordarbeit,” comprised of Finn Böhme and Frederik Kleinschmidt, is bringing their unique brand of interactive musical performances to various events in Kiel and surrounding areas. Their recent appearance at the Kiel window association‘s summer festival was met with eager audience participation, highlighting their mission to deliver music where it’s most appreciated.
The duo’s performances are characterized by their spontaneity and a strong emphasis on audience requests, which can even be made mid-concert. Their repertoire spans a wide range,from popular hits like “Über den Wolken” to songs by German bands such as Die Ärzte and Hooters. Böhme and Kleinschmidt, often dressed in distinctive attire like guild vests and corduroy trousers, adapt their musical offerings to the preferences of their listeners.
Beyond the Kiel window association’s festival, “Akkordarbeit” also performed at an inclusive summer festival on the Moorteich meadows. Kleinschmidt emphasized the importance of funding for institutions with limited budgets, noting that such support is crucial for enabling participation in events like these. While their focus has primarily been on Kiel and Rendsburg, plans are underway to expand their reach to other locations in northern Germany.
The atmosphere during their performances is described as both lively and focused, with audience members often singing along or simply enjoying the music. Böhme frequently distributes percussion instruments like bongos, shakers, and rattles, encouraging collective musical engagement. The duo’s philosophy, as they put it, is “here today, there tomorrow,” reflecting their adaptable and mobile approach to bringing music to diverse audiences.
