Close your eyes and only listen? No, keep your eyes open and look around! For here the notes take on movement as music is experienced with all the senses. Young Performance brings former participants in the LUCERNE FESTIVAL ACADEMY together with experienced directors, choreographers, and composers. Together they develop a stage program for young, still-inexperienced listeners. The goal: making music should be visible. In this new production by Young Performance, six young instrumentalists meet the Egyptian Maged Mohamed. And as a dancer (including in the ballet ensemble of the Dresden Semperoper and in the Bavarian Staatsballett) and choreographer, he knows exactly how to turn sounds into staged scenes. The new piece will engage with this year’s Festival theme of “Identity.”
