As part of his fellowship at Künstlerhof Schreyahn, composer and pianist Romeo Wecks presents a special solo evening at the piano, bringing music and visual art into a dialogical context. Under the title In Resonance, piano improvisations and original compositions enter into an atmospheric dialogue with the works of his mother, painter and graphic artist Simone Wecks (1957–2020). Selected works – in oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastel and lithography – will be shown on screen during the concert, creating a multifaceted interplay of sound and image. The evening will also include a brief introduction.

Born in Berlin in 1994, Romeo Wecks studied composition in Weimar and Würzburg with Prof. Michael Obst and Prof. Robert HP Platz, among others. His music transcends stylistic categories, combining serial techniques, spectral thinking and spatial concepts into a distinctive sound aesthetic. His works have been performed at international festivals such as the Weimar Spring Festival of Contemporary Music, the IMPULS Festival Saxony-Anhalt and B-Classic (Belgium). He has received numerous awards and was granted a residency fellowship at Künstlerhof Schreyahn for 2024/2025. In the summer of 2025, he participated as the only German composer in a two-week workshop at the National Gugak Center in Seoul, an intensive encounter with traditional Korean music.

Simone Wecks studied painting and graphic art at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts under Prof. Gerhard Kettner and also received private lessons from Werner Tübke. As a freelance artist and art educator, she lived and worked in Berlin, as well as on the island of Rügen, in Dresden and in the Ore Mountains. Her work—shaped by existential themes, transformation, illness and inner movement—was presented in numerous exhibitions in Berlin, Dresden, Moscow, Prague and on Rügen. In 2017, the Pyramide Gallery in Berlin dedicated a major solo exhibition to her on the occasion of her 60th birthday. For many years she led special classes for artistically gifted youth and, in 1993, founded her own private painting and drawing school in Berlin-Friedrichshain.

In Resonance is an evening of encounter: between music and visual art, between two generations, between memory and the present.
