This collaborative performance from vocalist Stine Janvin and choreographer Ula Sickle evokes the ritual of coming together on a dance floor around music in the late hours of the night. While gathering in a nightclub has been almost impossible over the past years due to the new reality brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, Echoic Choir takes on the challenge of using 'physical distancing' rules as artistic parameters.
Relying on the power of acoustic voices and spatial resonance, the project aims to create a collective and immersive sensorial event, by placing performers and audience in a shared space. Sound, choreography and lights create a strong synesthetic experience that channels the embodied experience of being on a late-night dance floor. Revisiting this setting and its sensory memories, albeit within new parameters, allows for new perspectives on a familiar scenario. The spectators are invited to participate in the work through their listening and their physical presence, realising a new kind of collective ritual.
