Dutch National Opera & Ballet

National Opera - The Four Note Opera

Inspired by the meta-theatre of Luigi Pirandello, composer Tom Johnson wrote a piece for a group of singers with only four notes at their disposal (A, B, D and E) and can sing about nothing other than the opera they are currently attending. Of course, that situation is untenable: the opera ends in total rigidity. The Four Note Opera can be seen in the Dutch National Opera & Ballet.

'Versus' promises to be a musically overwhelming and intoxicating journey through our greatest desires and fears about how we interact with each other. Two actors and eight cellists do everything they can to fight out the great primal human conflict, me versus the other, once and for all. The performance can be seen in Frascati.

Wojciech Grudziński in co-production with Frascati Producties - Bow a study

Bowing usually takes place in a theater. The audience applauds in gratitude for the players, who respond with a bow. In dance there is a gray area between the performance and the bow; there is a transition from one form of movement to another. What exactly happens at the moment of the bow? Who does it really serve?
