Inspired by the awe for nature,' The Susurration of the Tree' explores the relationship between trees and man. "How often have we stopped to listen? To their murmurs so wise, so reassuring, so serene, as we hustle-bustle and lose all measures of pace."

 

This work was developed to highlight the character of the roots, trunk and branches of a tree, accompanied by original music composed and improvised using a wide range of instruments, from dizi, xiao, xun, violin, voices and other axillary instruments, enhanced with music soundscape. Listen closely to the resonating notes as it brings us into nature and the dialogue between the dancers and the musicians.

 

A collaboration with the Singapore Chinese Dance Theatre, this dance is presented in VR180 and is best viewed on a VR headset for an immersive experience.
