Event Details

KATE SOPER Here Be Sirens

Aneta Podracká Bendová, Eva Marie Kořená, Jana Vondrů voice, piano, piano percussion

directed by Zuzana Fischer, scene

The American composer and singer Kate Soper uses a wide range of possibilities of the human voice in her work in the most diverse combinations, while musical theater is one of the main themes of her work. In the chamber opera Here Be Sirens, extraordinary flexibility is required from the trio of female performers, as they are both singers and actresses, as well as are playing the piano, which is the main object on stage as a multi-functional instrument performing in a variety of instrumental and theatrical guises.

The chamber work explores the strongly resonant and current topic of the position of women in contemporary society in the context of contemporary music.
