excerpt from RHOMBOS performed by the ASKO ensemble
This is the fourth collaboration with film-maker Ester Eva Damen and choreographer Angela Kohnlein. It is a work for film and live ensemble

The film is based on the idea of labyrinth - a play of darkness and light - disoreintation - a rotating camera - masses of moving bodies - moving light.

The music takes as it's starting images the sound of a bull roarer - two of which are used throughout the whole piece. Every thing in the music rotates and moves - an uneasy feeling

performance history:

planned for The Holland Festival (June) 2001 in Amsterdam.

To be performed by the ASKO ensemble
