Exercise/Exorcise (2021)
For those who have trained in classical performance practice, expertise often comes with the weight of history and tradition filled with expectations and assumptions about what is appropriate and good.
How might we honor and build upon our traditional training as performers and composers without being weighed down by it? How do we exercise these cultivated skills while exorcising ourselves of the burdensome expectations that inhibit exploration and creativity?
This series of guided, improvised duets explores a series of contrasting dualities (male/female, voice/instrument, east/west, traditional/experimental) in hopes of finding hidden third ways between and beyond such binaries (Fahad Siadat and Jeonghyeon Joo)
