’’VAN SCHENDEL ANIMA”: a string trio with visual effects and elements of drama

Premiere info: October 2021. Performance by Natasha Sutanto, Lia Melo and Clare Juan as part of the ’’Great Exhibitionists’’ – a competition-based project at the Royal College of Music (London, UK).
This mixed-media work comprising acoustic performance, dramatic elements and visual effects was inspired by Petrus Van Schendel – a Dutch-Belgian artist who explored darkness and sources of light in his paintings. They truly captivate the viewer in their peculiar atmosphere and the musical composition aims to re-imagine this in an audio-visual experience.
