INVITATION

SEI #3 after J.S. Bach
Suzan Tunca, dance performance
Giuliano Bracci, live electronics

Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 April 2022 at 19:30
Amsterdam University Theatre
Nieuwe Doelenstraat 16
duration ca. 30 min – free entrance

Please reserve a seat writing to me: giulianobracci@gmail.com

SEI is a dance and music performance on the edge between pre-determined and immediate acoustic and choreographed movements.

SEI is the practice component of the PhD research of Suzan Tunca in dance at PhDArts and an element of Giuliano Bracci’s PhD research in composition at docARTES. Suzan and Giuliano have been working together since 2018. What you will see is the integration of a third chapter.

Suzan Tunca investigates how to gain new perspectives on the relationship between the physical and the metaphysical through the dancing body as a creatively mediating interface. Giuliano Bracci investigates how the practice of transcribing involves listening, memory and invention and has the potential to make audible an active and critical relation to the music of the past.

The recording of Lucht is now online!

Vocalist Cora Schmeiser, visual artist Geerten Ten Bosch, sound artist Anne Wellmer and lighting designer Arnold Schalks bring Cora Schmeiser’s new performance VOX SANGUINIS to life. Via poetic, associative, scientific, absurd and lithurgical means a non-narrative world is being created that is inspired by Hildegard of Bingen and results in a series of still lives in motion.
New vocal compositions by Giuliano Bracci, Kate Moore, Lukas Simonis, Boudewijn Tarenskeen and Aliona Yurtsevich set the tone for a performance in which blood itself takes us on a journey through a laboratory of visions.

Vocal performer and idea: Cora Schmeiser
Silent performer and scenography: Geerten Ten Bosch
Sonic performer and live electronics: Anne Wellmer
Lighting design and technical director: Arnold Schalks

VOX SANGUINIS was commissioned by November Music and made possible with a broedplaatsensubsidie from the Gemeente Den Haag and with private funding. Many thanks to Judith Schoneveld, CLOUD in Den Haag and podium OCW in Rotterdam.
