THOUSAND ROOMS – 2013
« THOUSAND ROOMS WITH UNEXPECTED CHANGES »
A PERFORMANCE BY GUNHILD BJØRNSGAARD WITH A MUSIC OF GEORGES APERGHIS AND ROLF-ERIK NYSTRØM
Rolf-Erik Nystrøm- Saxofonist and Composer
Nina Biong -Dancer
Silje Aker Johnsen- Singer & Dancer
In this new piece Gunhild Bjørnsgaard probes the depths of composer Georges Aperghis’ world. His music requires great precision, evoking a journey through the unconscious, through the undisclosed dimensions of the performer. Aperghis is a composer who challenges the musicians by having them employ theatre methods as an important aspect of their communication with an audience and as a significant element of the piece performed. The story finds expression through an struggle over the capacity of the individual – a journey in thousand rooms with unexpected changes.
