Unschärfe

Length: ca. 6’00”
Instrumentation: percussion (1 player: tgl/2cyms/tam-t/vib/2bgos/3cgas/BD)
Lyrics: Camille Van Hoffelen

 

The following piece tries to explain one of the most abstruse scientific principles in less than six minutes. It is essential for the performer to remember the absurdity of this undertaking, and to execute the work with the corresponding irony.

Each time the stage lights are turned off, one insignificant part of the performer’s appearance must change. The changes should be subtle and remain unnoticed by the audience. Rolling up a sleeve, taking off a shoe, or pulling a handkerchief out of a pocket, are possible modifications. The performer is free to use his/her own ideas.
