Together in the Universe of Sound
Event
15.–16.10. & 29.–30.10.2022 at Maunula House, Helsinki
About
Liisa Pentti +Co and Oblivia gathered their forces to organise the Together in the Universe of Sound event at Maunula House during two weekends in October, 15–16 and 29-30.
What is experimental music theatre in 2021? How do you work together across genre boundaries? Together in the Universe of Sound focuses on the dialogue between music and performing arts. Invisible connections, entertaining variations and surprising openings are born in the encounter between performing arts and music.
The event brought together Finnish and international guests who work innovatively with music and the performing arts. We have invited two European groups that combine contemporary music, performance and dance. Their works were be shown for the first time in Finland.
Event was supported by Goethe-Institut Finnland, City of Helsinki, Konstsamfundet, Stiftelsen Tre Smeder, Finnish Cultural Foundation, Arts Promotion Centre and DANCE ON TOUR AUSTRIA – a project by Tanzquartier Wien in cooperation with the Federal Ministry for European and International Affairs.
