Ballet Preljocaj - Granular Synthesis (F): "N"

“N” is the title which has been given to the work prepared with Ulf Langheinrich and Kurt Hentschlager. It is a “masked title” which purposefully does not express what is evoked in the work, which deals with the unspeakable, what is beyond description. Suffering, torment, humiliation, torture… the body as the primary vector for annihilation and destruction. If what we are trying to say seems virtual and distant to a part of the world population, it is in fact quite close and cogently, sharply real. It has spread throughout time from the very dawn of our existence to the present day, without interruption, reaching incandescent peaks of trouble. Its force is matched solely by our disbelief.
