StormSongs

STORMSONGS is een muziekproject over de relatie tussen mens en zee. Traditionele liederen over de zee worden versneden met hedendaagse spreekkoren

Cornwall has one of the richest communal singing cultures in Western Europe. The traditional songs reflect the ups and downs of the fishing trade and the community as a whole. We tried to add new repertoire to this vivid tradition. Local singers and musicians took part in a musical experiment that examined the contemporary socio-environmental conditions. Combining musical traditions with topical personal stories and traditional tunes with new vocal sounds.

Fluisteren, schreeuwen en brullen tegen de wind om uitdrukking te geven aan het toenemende gevoel van onmacht.
