stück 1998 / anchor 2018, February 16-24

I'm thrilled to be a part of an exciting series of performances created by choreographer Ayako Kato at Links Hall during the next two weeks. She has realized 30 pages of Wandelweiser composer Manfred Werder's 4000-page piece stück 1998. As the composer specifies that a single page of the score can only be performed once, each evening will feature a different excerpt of the score and uniquely explore the intersection between music and dance.
