harp+dance

den haag, 14 march 2011 harp&soul: FABRIK

You may remember Valentina and myself from the 60x60 dance project we did here in London last year. We were delighted to have been given your track 'Something Happened' to work with as we loved the beautifully dark and mysterious atmosphere it created. The one minute dance we made and performed to it was fun to do and was well received. In fact we've been asked to do it again at Greenwich Dance Agency Cabaret in London in April. We would like to develop our dance perhaps into something a little longer (4 or 5 mins) for this performance opportunity and are thinking about what to do soundwise.We were wondering whether your 60 second piece was the original piece of music you had created or whether it was part of a longer work? If it was part of a longer work could we listen to it? amy bell and valentina golfieri
 
in april the dance will be video registrated + performed
@ greenwich dance agency in london


based on the 60 sec. piece:  something happened  i have created a full lenght soundscape

a blend of different arts fabrics another sound motion shape colour vision
johan mulder - video editor for the NOB + remix freak who works passionate on lots of projects - has created an awesome remix of my free improv. i am a dreamer for harp solo - it is an unique combi of electronic music - dance/lounge + my acoustic harpsounds - i really enjoy this collab because my free lyrical music has given some structure + above all i feel that it is important to share my music in a crossover setting - so it can evolve by the creativity of other artists!
