Bass clarinet & dance

Bass clarinetist Fie Schouten and dancer Manuela Tessi breathe life into composer Margriet Hoenderdos' remarkable composition Sela (Aire). This concert not only pays homage to Hoenderdos (1952-2010) but also delves into the fusion of sound and movement. Hoenderdos' music is bold yet exquisite, yet unfortunately, her work remains underappreciated due to its infrequent performance.

Dancer Manuela Tessi, originally from Milan and residing in the Netherlands since 1999, delves into the intricate relationship between movement's musicality and sound in her research. Her focus lies on kinesthetic empathy. Fie Schouten, renowned for her versatility and passion for low instruments, stands as a prominent bass clarinetist with global performances across various ensembles.
