Here's a recap from our premiere of Encounters in Graz, Feb 04 2023.
Encounters is a participatory performance exploring the interpersonal through choreo-musical interventions.
Starting from the research question of musical togetherness in a duo, this performance spans the arc to the fundamental question of "we": how do we want to encounter each other, how do we want to shape our togetherness in the face of ongoing social crises? Beyond the disciplinary boundaries between traditional concert, instrumental theatre, participatory research and artistic intervention, the performance explores musical interplay in all its depth and facets, but also actively involves the audience in shaping these "we" qualities.
