This piece is for an audience of 1, and lasts for 30 minutes.
Don't miss out on the sister performance in the room next door:
Benjamin Soistier – Jeu de sens
Gwen Rouger – concept & musician
The piece is part of the concept ICI in Kulturhuset i Bergen, created by soundinitiative for Borealis.
Imagine being asked to help the pianist perform!
In this intimate concert for only one audience member, virtuosic pianist Gwen Rouger asks you to enter her tent, and help her perform a piece for prepared piano. In front of an entirely opened piano, the solo audience is as close as possible to the heart of the instrument and to the physical exertions of the pianist. If you thought you knew what a classical concert was this piece will deconstruct and reconstruct your expectations, as you experience a playful and joyful musical experience giving an intimate and exciting glimpse in to the heart of musical creation.
soundinitiative is supported by the Ile-de-France Regional Direction of the Ministry for Culture and by the Ile-de-France Region.
