THE TIMES STANDS STILL

musical and visual journey in the perception of time, with the Nederlands Kamerkoor
2015

The summer is over. And the clock is merciless: time moves back an hour. The days get shorter. No more sultry evenings. We must prepare for the long, cold winter days. The Nederlands Kamerkoor sings about time, quick and slow, about darkness, while Lise Bruyneel reacts directly to the music with visuals. Together they will praise the dark days, and create a monument for time.

Compositions by Gesualdo, Uusberg, Part, Berio, Whitacre, Lang, Byström and the ‘4’33’ of Cage (really, I dared to put images on it)
