Translation of the German text available here.&nbsp; Imagine a Canon takes the form of an experimental lecture that invites listeners to reflect on the narratives shaping our cultural identities. The title, which returns in different refrains throughout the piece, refers both to the single-string instrument called a “canon” and to the idea of a cultural canon, a collection of works deemed valuable or authoritative. This instrument sits at the centre of the story of Pythagoras plucking a single string to deduce laws of acoustics, a story that later became part of the myth of Western cultural and intellectual superiority. The work is composed entirely from the artist’s own recordings of six pianos in Berlin, captured over six years. These instruments range from very old to brand new, and their voices intertwine with the artist’s narration and two early experimental recordings from Carl Stumpf’s Phonogramm Archiv. Across these years, the artist was examining how musical knowledge is formed within the broader history of colonial power, and how the piano has figured in Europe’s cultural expansion. The piece also brings in figures who shaped ideas about sound in the period leading up to and during the first German Empire: Hermann von Helmholtz, a foundational thinker in acoustics, and Carl Stumpf, an early proponent of what was then called “comparative musicology.” Stumpf was among the first to use wax recording technology for his research, establishing the Phonogramm Archiv. In the work, Helmholtz and Stumpf’s theories of consonance and dissonance become metaphors for sameness and difference. Berlin itself forms an essential backdrop - Stumpf and Helmholtz were based in Berlin for large parts of their careers. As the city grew into a cultural and intellectual centre in the late 19th century, it also hosted colonial exhibitions and, most notably, the Berlin Conference of 1884–85, where colonial and aspiring colonial powers partitioned African territories without a single African representative present. These histories resonate through the piece, raising questions about who gets to define not only what counts as beautiful, but also who counts as human. https://coilaleahenderstein.com/Bin-ich-auch-Berliner-in Sat, 24 Jan 2026 12:07:04 +0000 Coila-Leah Enderstein | Pianist https://coilaleahenderstein.com/Bin-ich-auch-Berliner-in Ich bin hier, bin ich auch Berliner*in?

The 40 minute performance explores the action of collapse and falling down and the potentials for hope and creation that this action can bring. How can we strengthen our resilience in the face of collapse by learning from children? Is it possible to grapple with crisis through play, curiosity and the desire to create something new? Through engagement with the square at Apfelsinenplatz and workshops with the children at the Apfelsinenplatz Kita, the artists developed the outdoor mini performance in which they play with physical and affective realms of collapse. Inspired by the children’s robust relationships to falling and breaking things down, they build up, tear down, search for balance, fail and interrupt, as each moment of collapse presents its potential for a transformation into something unexpected. Fallen!Zusammen was first presented in June 2023 at Apfesinenplatz, Berlin, and again in July 2024 as part of KinderSommerTheater Neukölln at Young Arts Dammweg campus.

 “Songs from Me to You” is a 40 minute experimental performance by Coila-Leah Enderstein. Through encounters with historical figures and with the help of particular instruments, the piece situates acoustic knowledge production within the frame of coloniality/modernity. With a focus on Germany’s imperial period from 1871 - 1918, the performance playfully works as something between a song cycle and a lecture, incorporating decolonial approaches to sound, listening and knowledge.The piece focuses on Hermann von Helmholtz and Carl Stumpf, who were both based in Berlin for most of their careers. The performance brings the two scientists’ work about acoustic phenomena into relation with pianos situated in sites of epistemic and cultural significance in Berlin, and with a fateful event epitomising European imperialism in the late 19th century: the so-called “Berlin Conference.”The performance premiered on 26 and 27 May 2022 as part of the UdK Sound Studies and Sonic Arts Master Exhibition at the Collegium Hungaricum Berlin. In 2023 it was presented at the Bowed Electrons Symposium (University of Cape Town), Oscillations Workshop (University of the Western Cape Centre for Humanities Research in collaboration with Akademie der Künste)&nbsp;and Stellenbosch University Museum in partnership with Africa Open Institute. In 2024 the work was Presented at feminist collective “gather up” Symposium, at the UdK Berlin.

The result was a series of videos that sought to bring music and dance into the daily lives of young children and their caregivers, providing entry points for potential live performances at a later stage. The content of the videos was developed through practices of real time composition, the discipline through which the artists first came together.&nbsp; The full-length piece combines the content of the videos. It has distinct sections and landmarks but retains the flexibility and spontaneity of real time composition, which is crucial since the piece opens up to the children during the performance. The fundamental principle of the practice is the negotiation in real time of different modes of performance as well as different aesthetic traditions. In this case, a juxtaposition of elements of traditional African music and dance with figurations of Western classical music, in conversation through an experimental and collaborative approach.&nbsp;&nbsp;<img width="2000" height="1333" width_o="2000" height_o="1333" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/20fe9c4622a5a353bb83ed4ca5224dbb773446810773c276e51192e336e742ab/DSCF8238.jpg" data-mid="151345447" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/20fe9c4622a5a353bb83ed4ca5224dbb773446810773c276e51192e336e742ab/DSCF8238.jpg" /><img width="2000" height="1333" width_o="2000" height_o="1333" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fc9b45e22fb57acd6426eb6cb24c9a35b7cf23d26b3fab58c8345c1a2b154a37/DSCF8009.jpg" data-mid="151345292" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fc9b45e22fb57acd6426eb6cb24c9a35b7cf23d26b3fab58c8345c1a2b154a37/DSCF8009.jpg" />Images by Lindsey Appolis https://coilaleahenderstein.com/Crossing-the-Pale-River Thu, 09 Sep 2021 09:11:39 +0000 Coila-Leah Enderstein | Pianist https://coilaleahenderstein.com/Crossing-the-Pale-River Crossing the Pale River (2020 - 2021) <img width="6000" height="4000" width_o="6000" height_o="4000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/385bd2996a3dbe6b7c8a156e43bd113e229f75d1f5dd97c48cbb3b33297a4573/pale-river-orange-4.jpg" data-mid="177258104" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/385bd2996a3dbe6b7c8a156e43bd113e229f75d1f5dd97c48cbb3b33297a4573/pale-river-orange-4.jpg" /> Image by Zee Hartmann50-minute guided audio walk with intermittent live performances along Transvaalstraße in Wedding, Berlin. Created and performed by white South African artists Coila-Leah Enderstein and Nicola van Straaten, the site-specific work reflects on a street in Berlin named after a province in South Africa, which no longer exists. The “Transvaal” was a province in South Africa from 1852 up until 1994. When the British took control of the Cape in the early 19th century, the descendents of Dutch farmer-settlers (the Boers) traveled north-eastwards with the hopes of establishing a homeland and to evade British colonial rule. The demarcation of territory north of the Vaal river (which has its source in present-day Mpumalanga province) was the culmination of this journey, commonly known as the “Great Trek”. This mass migration displaced indigenous peoples and played a prominent role in the formation of white Afrikaner identity. The presence of a street named after the Transvaal in Germany’s capital betrays a complex set of historical relations and the racial project of nation-building, particularly in the ways it intersects with symbols of Germany’s own history of empire: the streets that cross Transvaalstraße being Lüderitzstraße, Togostraße, Guineastraße, Senegalstraße and Afrikanische Straße. Starting from their perspectives as descendents of European settlers, the two artists interweave their personal narratives and lesser-known histories in order to critically reflect together on our relations to coloniality, land, naming and mapping.

In the 20 minute performance, a text written and performed by Coila-Leah Enderstein plays from a bluetooth speaker placed inside the grand piano, guiding the performer and public through possible connections between sites, events, traditions and narratives. The performer creates a literal web from thread, woven between episodes of sounding at the piano that are each prompted by variations of the refrain, "Let us find a beginning. Let us imagine a canon."&nbsp; “I approach the piano as a mutable, fluid entity: a sounding body, a tool for representation, a machine produced by (and reproducing) modernity, and a possible site of transformation. With a live event I invite a public to join me in attending to the complexity, and urgency, of the "post"-colonial. This forms part of an extended project of not-taking-for-granted: an attempt to undermine epistemological hegemony and look towards non-rational concepts of sound and sounding as possible sites for relation, self-determination and healing. Along this path I recognise the invention and instrumentalisation of notions such as tradition and nation, whether for oppressive or liberatory aims. I want to attend to possible essentialisms and foster my own “ecology of agencies and refusals” towards them. I have spent time attuning to the ways in which the piano is constituted according to particular, situated understandings of acoustic phenomena. The preparing of the piano is a way for me to transform what is given as fixed; I am not trying to find new sounds, but reconfigure my listening and pathways to and through sounds. Sometimes the sounds are metaphors, other times they are aids for contemplation. Sometimes they are just music.” &nbsp; <img width="2560" height="1707" width_o="2560" height_o="1707" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c7594ac2fe28650f17d69e54341cc4a31d06c268754ec3605ccd2f9903056e61/dev-0704.jpg" data-mid="78791735" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c7594ac2fe28650f17d69e54341cc4a31d06c268754ec3605ccd2f9903056e61/dev-0704.jpg" /> <img width="2560" height="1707" width_o="2560" height_o="1707" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/622ad5242375b1fa6d23947dd1141996854d09d184c13b1897b6998dae09e2b2/dev-0733.jpg" data-mid="78791507" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/622ad5242375b1fa6d23947dd1141996854d09d184c13b1897b6998dae09e2b2/dev-0733.jpg" /> .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }<img width="2560" height="1707" width_o="2560" height_o="1707" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/622ad5242375b1fa6d23947dd1141996854d09d184c13b1897b6998dae09e2b2/dev-0733.jpg" data-mid="78791507" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/622ad5242375b1fa6d23947dd1141996854d09d184c13b1897b6998dae09e2b2/dev-0733.jpg" />
