LOUD SILENCE
Dance music performance
Sounds meet walls, a body meets light. The arts of music and dance combine with the conditions of the space, immersing themselves in a conversation with many facets. The focus is on improvisation. The special thing about this is the equality in dealing with the available means. Silence encounters turmoil or is turned upside down, a crackling sound wanders through the room. A secret is revealed in the movements, but also exposes sensitivities...
The feelings of the spectators in the room also connect with the situation they are experiencing. The breathing of everyone in the room carries the performance, whether understanding, rejecting, participating or questioning...

MONDOLETTOSOTTOILCORVO was founded in 2018 by Gandolfo Pagano and Willehad Grafenhorst. MONDOLETTOSOTTOILCORVO combines the experiences of two musicians who grew up in opposite regions of Europe. They met in the Madonie region of Sicily and were surprised by the immediately noticeable synergy. This gave rise to the idea for this project.
