Female power! The 25 Polish women in Chór Kobiet are shouting, singing, whispering, screaming, dancing and moving. All together, all alone, or in groups. The choir is a collective that consists of individuals. Magnificat uses samples from rhythmic speech and one-liners borrowed from pop culture, mixing them with traditional forms of sacred music. Quotes from the bible, food recipes, newspaper clippings, classic literary and philosophical texts. An ideo-sonic remix as a statement about women within the power system of the (Catholic) church. (50 min.)
Fri 17 may there is a Q&A after the performance with Marta Górnicka. 21.50h at the SSBU, DE Zaal [UK/translator P-NL]. Moderator: Sara van der Kooi
