Six musicians from Korea and France explore sound as a collective phenomenon born of encounter and relationship: Wind Alone, Sand Alone - Make No Sound.

‍The breath, vocalisation, friction, and resonance of sound artist Rémi Klemensiewicz, haegeum player Yeji Kim, viola d'amore player Olivier Marin, geomungo player Eunyong Sim of JAMBINAI, medieval vocalist Christian Ploix, and jeongga (traditional Korean vocal music) singer Yoonyoung Cho interweave.

This performance unfolds in the round, immersing audiences within the evolving sonic landscape. As jeongga and medieval chant, traditional instruments, and ambient soundscapes seep into one another, we surrender to a boundless world where space itself takes centre stage. Through the act of relating, sound transforms into melody, harmony, and rhythm, organizing itself into music that carries emotion. Wind Alone, Sand Alone - Make No Sound unfolds this process of sound's emergence, relation, expansion, dissolution, and return across multiple layers of acoustic space. It is a sonic theatre that treats music as a living entity. Here, the hum of ventilation units, the buzz of lighting rigs, our shared breath, our voices, and our playing endlessly blur the lines between foreground and background. They appear and dissolve in harmony, transforming the space into one living, breathing organism.
