Atelier neuer Musik
„From a standpoint of technical advancement Holz tries in compositions such as Quintett (2009) or in his recent work for ensemble Kataklothes (2015) to gain a tonal gravitation without tonality.
Eres Holz contributed also for Sarah Nemtsov's MEKOMOT-project: new music and liturgical singing in old and new synagogues, in forgotten and present places of Jewish life in Germany and Poland.
With Allen Ginsberg's great Kaddish poem, he chose a text that stands in a tensed relationship to religious tradition. The dubious, scrupulous search in the "labyrinth of identity," which Eres Holz refers to the text, may also drive his own work.“
Eres Holz was Composer in Residence of the German national broadcasting radio station - Deutschlandfunk 2017.
