„Not a Concert“ is an attempt to create a new type of event. An attempt to tell a story with no dialogue and no acting. Telling it in a way that is visually and aurally attractive. Telling it in a way that encourages people to discover and engage, get lost and become absorbed.
It’s not a concert - but what is it then? It’s a performance, an experience, a story being told with light, video, dance and sound. The musician stands in the middle of the room. For once, light and projection are not only by-products of music, but equal partners.The music is improvised and played live. The light and projections are mixed live. A new kind of event. A new way of seeing music.
During most performances the audience is bound to sitting on chairs or standing in a crowd and therefore consume passively. The installation that forms the stage of „Not a Concert“ invites the viewers to move around and discover. Although the screens are transparent, it is impossible to see everything at once. To make the most of the experience, the viewer has to move around, get closer to discover details and step back to see the whole picture.
This is no attempt to create the next big thing and conquer the masses. It’s an attempt to create something intimate, personal and unique. An experience that is not to be forgotten easily.
