Audioglimt Sesong 3 - konsert og filmserie, denne gangen med Alwynne Pritchard som lager live filmmusikk til utdrag av Meredith Monk's Quarry!

Alwynne Pritchard bruker sin særegne stemme når hun går til verks med å skape alternative lydspor til utdrag (video-opptak) fra Meredith Monk’s forestilling Quarry fra 1976.
Et møte mellom to allsidige kunstnerskap, med like sterke likhetstrek som kontraster!

Audioglimt inviterer artister fra ulike sjanger og bakgrunn til å spille egne lydspor til en film de velger selv. Konseptets fokus er på kunsten av å lage/spille musikk til film, fremfor å vektlegge en bestemt sjanger. I løpet av tre tidligere sesong har Audioglimt har vist alt fra nye action filmer til høydepunkter fra 80 tallets NRK, med lydspor som spenner fra Andeansk folkemusikk til experimentelle støy improvisasjoner.
Artistene som spiller på Audioglimt er ofte blant de fremste regionale talentene innen vær sitt sjanger.

Vi åpner dørene klokken 19.00, med konsertstart klokken 20.00. Som alltid serverer vi noe mat, og det er snacks og drikke i baren!
NB: Cash is king!

Alwynne sier om prosjektet:
Meredith Monk believes in the healing power of art. I’m not sure I do. Neither am I sure that being healed would be very useful to me as artist. Do we need healing? Is pain a bad thing? Is art a good thing? I don’t know the answers to these questions. In the face of them and much of what I do, it is the writer Haruki Murikami’s statement that ‘a heavy silence that defies words exists inside me’ that resonates most powerfully. However, like Monk, I’m fascinated by the human voice, its relationship to movement and expressive potential. For this reason, her work is interesting to me as performer, however radically different it is from my own. And using my voice to create an alternative audio track to extracts from her 1977 stage piece “Quarry” presents me with a direct, practical and enriching way to address what it is I find both compelling and problematic about this piece.
