The landscape in which harpist Doriene Marselje positions herself consists of a sea of lights that dance and react to the sounds she elicits from her instrument. Marselje had this interactive light installation developed by students of Delft University of Technology, thus creating a poetic setting for her solo recital, which is best enjoyed in the dark. Following in the footsteps of pioneers such as Luciano Berio and John Cage, she aims to broaden the possibilities of the instrument and renew performance practice. The audience takes its place among the lights and allows itself to be carried away in this enchanting experience. Marselje links the compositions she selected for this programme by composers Lo Shi-Wei, Isang Yun, Piet-Jan Van Rossum, John Cage en Toru Takemitsu to her own electronic sketches.
