Josephine

Theatre piece with the music of the Noise Atelier Ensemble, premiered in Seville, Spain in December 2012.

'Josephine, elegía de la composición muerta' (2012) is a theater production in collaboration with Noise Atelier (Spain). Along the performance, a baroque ensemble (Vienna) and its modern counterpart (live in Seville) are synchronized by means of a soundscore to compose the tortured personality of the main character, unable to accept his time and reality. Different sound environments placed in different time and place challenges the audience with non-linear musical narratives.
