BIOGRAPHY
With breathtaking musical precision, the exceptional musician Dora Donata Sammer moves effortlessly between eras. Her repertoire spans the spectrum from the historical performance practice of early music to the radical, forward-looking sounds of the contemporary avant-garde. The fascinating interplay between the delicate sopranino recorder and the powerful, futuristic-sounding contrabass recorder makes her solo programmes an unforgettable, physical concert experience.
She says: “For me, it’s not a case of either/or, but simply AND.” In her performances, Dora Donata Sammer not only breaks with traditional performance conventions and listening habits – she also regularly pushes her own boundaries, both musically and physically. There is a certain radiance about her and a drive to open up new musical spaces and explore them together with her audience. With her programme ‘IN BETWEEN’ and her solo programme ‘FROM IMITATIONS TO ILLUSIONS’, she takes recorder music to a whole new level.
