Music with 3 original musical instruments from BAUHAUS

The FONICS [FOrmes Nouvelles d'Instruments à CordeS] built by Jean Weinfeld from Bauhaus [Dessau 1925 - 1930]

Myster Shadow-Sky met Jean Weinfeld in Paris in 1985 [sixty years after!] and proposed him to extract music from his Bauhaus strings sculptures that any other composer accepted : because these musical instrument was uncomfortable to play. Jean Weinfeld was enthusiastic because it was the first time that its Fonics sounded in musical composition. Myster Shadow-Sky composed and performed a series of 7 pieces entitled Dïngx [dingue in French mean incredible or mad and dingx in local Polish mean thing]. These Myster Shadow-Sky Bauhaus music traveled around the world with the Fonics exhibition from to the Lincoln Center in New York to Appolonius Haus [invited by Paul Panhuysen] in Holland where Mathius gave a live performance.
