About the
Event

Two singers plan to perform Berio's iconic work ‘Recital for Cathy’, but neither the pianist nor the orchestra turn up. The hierarchy between singers and instrumentalists dissolves completely: The three performers themselves become the orchestra and create the utopia of an interdisciplinary musical event on stage. The result is a powerful performance in which three young women reveal not only their virtuosity but also their vulnerability through their voices, bodies, biographies and talents.
