‘Endless by 3’
This person speaks, that person moves.
A creation starts. That composition gets transformed.
A collective composition within the instants of time. Never knowing how it will end but trusting with
listening bodies and open minds a creation will unfold.
‘Serenus’ is a dance performance that took place in the courtyards of apartment buildings around Freiburg. Through the Latin American tradition of the Serenata and the literary genre of Magic Realism, the artists were inspired to create a magical dance piece accompanied by serenades on the viola. Surprising and unexpected stories unfolded below the audience while they watch comfortably from their own home.

Drinking Air – ONCE Festival für Improvisation
“Drinking Air” is an Instant Composition piece performed by Quizzical Körper in collaboration with violinist Harald Kimmig. The main concept is synesthesia – the ability to hear colors, see sounds or taste shapes. One musician and three dancers compose instantaneously working with synesthetic abilities: The dancers attempt to see, feel and embody the sounds; the musician intends to hear, feel and transcribe the movement. In this piece, dance and music are in a constant dialogue – sometimes in cooperation, sometimes in conflict – to create a multidimensional landscape which transcends our senses.
