tacet_ (Wiederaufnahme)

Music and dance meets ... Silence. - An immersive music and dance performance by Cie. ZEIT/GEIST

The impetus for tacet_ is the collective numbness that has gripped us in the face of the current global crises. It seems to contradict the breathless pace of an accelerated society to which we have become so accustomed. The word "tacet" is used in musical notation and means "silence" for the instrument or the singing voice.
Four dancers and a cellist embark on a minimalist journey in search of inner peace and interpersonal connection in a noisy, increasingly dystopian world.

But can communication succeed in silence?
Does silence have a physical resonance?

Press review:
"Eva Baumann gets an extraordinary amount out of silence. She turns it into a multi-faceted sound and performance event. tacet_ tells casually and yet with high tension about vulnerability, consideration and mutual listening." (SWR Klassik)

The performance will also include the workshops "Resonating Silence" with Eva Baumann and "Cartographie Sensible" with Céline Papion. Further information at: https://www.evabaumann.art/de/tacet-de
