Ten people attempt to merge with nature. Voice, breath, and percussion meld with the wind, sand, and grass to create a living painting. Not a performance to be watched, but a moment to disappear into. An invitation to listen more deeply. To the earth. To everything that lives.

Sand, grass, breath, movement, birds, a chance passer-by, and percussion come together to form a musical painting: the act of watching slowly transforms into taking part. In an age where humanity and nature seem further apart than ever, the trainees of the Netherlands Chamber Choir (NKK), a physical performer, and a percussionist attempt to merge with their surroundings. In doing so, they pose the question: are we actually still capable of that? For this performance, composer and director Mees Vervuurt has created a new composition in which all singers perform in their native tongues: Korean, Catalan, Occitan, French, Portuguese, Dutch, and Cypriot-Greek.

Accessibility info

The access route from the bicycle parking area is 300 meters of loose sand. The path is partly steep uphill and narrow. The audience sits on the ground on improvised seating.
