duet for bodies and voices

Duet for bodies and voices, is a work in progress, developed in residency at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance. It is part of the final stage of a new project Divertimento by award-winning aerialist and vocalist Gisele Edwards. The project will premiere in 2016 at The Castle, Wellingborough.

Divertimento is a playful programme of work exploring the visceral and physical aspects of music. The pieces look at how body (instrument), space (sound waves, suspension, the space between notes of a score) and movement enable music. In Duet for bodies and voices, two aerialists negotiate space and elements of scaffolding and song to construct an exuberant physical and musical

composition.

Performed by Gisele Edwards and Hugo Mega.

Directed by Emma Bernard.

Musical direction Melanie Pappenheim.

Produced and Designed by María José Martínez Sánchez and Mariana Sastre for Neck of the Woods.
