Harmonies are fundamental elements in cooking as well as in music. For Dirk Schröer, both belong together, such as day and night or sun and moon. Music also plays a very central role in his daily creative process: Hardly any of his recipes are created without music on his ears, at night when the family is sleeping. During his time as chef at Caroussel at Bülow Residenz Dresden (2006 to 2013), he was one of the WHITE PLATE players and dealt with this topic away from the kitchen.

Born in Stuttgart, he dared an exciting experiment for WHITE PLATE and had the idea of translating taste compositions into sounds and tones. In cooperation with the Trossingen Conservatory and students of the “Sound Design” program, an interactive sound installation was created within nine months under the aegis of Professor Florian Käppler. Exhibition visitors are invited to experiment and experience the comparability of taste and sound as a game of harmony and disharmony — and thus the challenges of a chef as a composer of taste.
