The composition and the space Fischhaus
LIQUID SOULS opens a „space opera“ with dramatic and minimalistic moments; the water, in its symbolic and social significance, orbits its dynamics and mutability as well as its extremes. A gigantic wooden wall, leans on the fish house at the F.F. Schlosspark, conceals on the one hand the neoclassical architecture and on the other hand forms a variable stage sculpture for the four vocalists. Multilayer vocal actions, together with large-format video projections and multi-channel sound installation, provide different perspectives on the matter of water.
