Steve Reich / Peter Eötvös

A mixture of solos, duos and trios, collage, mobile, and sound sculpture, Chroma scatters instrumental ensembles, turntables and dozens of music boxes across the space. Listeners are invited to wander around these living and mechanical islands, each a source of limitless perspectives, whilst the Grand Palais in turn shapes the work and makes it unique.

Drawing upon a newspaper story of an extraordinary kind, that of the appearance on a beach of a man suffering from amnesia, Marcus Lindeen and Marianne Ségol continue their work in the field of documentary theatre. With a mixture of precision and philosophy, they probe into the spoken words that underlie narratives.
