Am 1. Oktober ist Hèctor Parra, der Komponist von HYPERMUSIC PROLOGUE, rund um die Uhr beschäftigt. Mittags startet sein Kompositionsworkshop und Meisterkurs im Instituto Cervantes in Berlin, für den sich etwa zehn junge Komponistinnen und Komponisten aus Spanien, Italien und Deutschland angemeldet haben. Hèctor Parra spricht unter anderem über die Einflüsse auf seinen Kompositionsstil, die aus den unterschiedlichsten Gebieten stammen: Aus der Kunst El Grecos zieht er ebenso Inspiration wie aus den physikalischen Modellen Lisa Randalls. Im Anschluss an den Workshop findet ebenfalls im spanischen Kulturinstitut die abendliche Einführungsrunde zu HYPERMUSIC PROLOGUE statt. Neben Hèctor Parra sitzen am Round Table seine beiden Kollegen Elena Mendoza und Enno Poppe sowie Musikpsychologe Professor Stefan Koelsch. Moderiert von Jens Schroth, dem leitenden Dramaturgen der Berliner Staatsoper, entwickelt sich eine spannende Diskussion über Hèctor Parras Musik, seine Kammeroper im Besonderen und über die voller Potential steckende Verbindung von Kunst und Wissenschaft im Allgemeinen.
