15 November 2021
Montpellier / France
In residence at the Opera Orchestra, director Franciska Éry, composer Alexander Ho and poet Ar Guens Jean Mary imagine the immersive and interactive opera opus "Séisme" (in english earthquake), a conversation between humans and the Earth, and invites reflection on the means of preserving it. Inspired by the poetry of Jean Mary, who explores the impact of earthquakes on communities, director F. Éry and composer A. Ho dissect the stages of an earthquake to reconstruct the different stages of formation as structure of an immersive and interactive opera.
