Spur der StimmeDüsseldorf (APK)
Stimmtanzperformance Was macht die Stimme aus? Was hat die Stimme mit Intuition, Selbstkenntnis und Beziehung zu tun? Und in welchem Verhältnis steht sie zu mir und 'dem anderen'?

In unserem Kopf hören wir ständig Anteile anderer Stimmen. Dadurch orientieren wir uns ablehnend, abwehrend oder liebend, begehrend. Unsere Reaktion auf die Stimmen der anderen wird wieder Teil unserer Stimmidentität.
Fr. 16.12. 2022 20.00 (Premiere)
Performance: Kristin Schuster, Yoann Jouneau |

On the one hand, this was Ligeti's "extreme electronic" approach to the acoustic instrument and, on the other hand, Beuys' concept of tearing down the wall between life and art..." |
