EKKLESIATERION BY JOSEFINE OPSAHL 

 

Ekklesiaterion is a musical exploration of time and place, bodies and sonic bodies correlating.

In a sunset concert Danish composer and cellist Josefine Opsahl takes over the grand hall of Thorvaldsens Museum in a quadraphonic force field of sound, that brings performer and audience together in a praise of sensing collectively. Unfolding between Bertel Thorvaldsen's monumental stone bodies, time and timelessness, the intimate and the cosmic interfere and calls upon ancient rituals and foundations for democracy.
