八和九之間 (成都茶館項目)

A Chamber Made Opera work in partnership with Sichuan Conservatory of Music

Presented in Chengdu by Sichuan Provincial Song and Dance Company Ltd’s Contemporary Arts Performance Season 2017

A 60 minute sound experience created by a group of Australian and Chinese artists led by Madeleine Flynn and Tim Humphrey, Between 8 and 9  features intersections of sound/music/design/space/text, including new composition, electro-acoustic and spatial sound designs, sculptural design, traditional instrumentation, and vocal performance.

The project is supported by the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria. The creative development of this project was supported by a Playking Foundation Travel Grant and Darebin Arts, City of Darebin. Significant development support has been provided by Sichuan Conservatory of Music.

This project was supported by the Sidney Myer Fund and by Arts Centre Melbourne through Creative Victoria for Asia TOPA (Asia Pacific Triennial of Performing Arts).
