Europe’s future spoken out
Speaking choir pieces will be developed during the course of the festival. To create a polyphonic perspective, we will collect participants’ thoughts addressing Europe’s future and merge them with interviews taken in the streets of Ljubljana. The pieces will explore the concept of an individual, who is, at the same time, more than one person.
Repertoire
The programme will be based on improvisation and co-creation by Florian Hein together with the participants of Atelier A9.
