In this world, we make the map and navigate its landscape simultaneously; – traveling through a multitude of atmospheres and stories as our characters meet, separate, build, and destroy.
Our compass is listening to ourselves, each other, and the material, as it lives and transforms in the present moment. We listen to what is already there, while giving form to it as it arrives. Guided by both intuition and an extensive, technical study of instant choice-making, we compose, contrast, and compliment the steps suggested by the other. Underneath a challenge there is always support.
We embody the present through movement, music, voice, and poetry. The aim is to abandon borders between genres, merely relying on whatever means it takes to create a certain image or feeling.
Jonathan’s dedicated physical practice allows him not only to move his body with an awareness through space and time beyond the traditional musician role, but also enhances the sense of bodiness in his sound. Anna’s long-standing affinity with musicality enriches her movements with a strong sense of rhythmicity and phrasing, while her background in acapella singing enables her to use her voice as a second instrument.
