River of Nostalgia

Beschreibung

Nostalgia is a kind of synesthesia, it is the communication between the inner emotion and human’s mind. It is homesickness, the return of the nature, it is like pursuing one’s root. It is a kind of sincerity; also it is like the fetter of leaves and roots that is bounded together. This piece focused on reflecting the Chinese traditional humanism. By telling the story in a simple way but expressed the strong homesickness. Meanwhile, nostalgia is used as a narrative clue to create the common culture root of our compatriots at home and overseas. It is set to promote the cultural exchanges and cooperation with Taiwan. Designed for percussion, clarinet, mixed chamber music, dance and multimedia and interactive video, this work is different from the traditional drama in how it was designed. Arousing by the dancers with the media and the sound, the contrast of abstract and concrete by applying holographic screen and device of projection, turned the whole theater into a sparkling dream. General Idea of The Story: Travelling thousands of miles, wandering far away from home, he met a wonderful love, a girl of graceful posture and tenderness made him contemporarily forget the misery. From then, two people are like the heavenly pair of lovebirds. However, the feeling of homesickness is fairly strong even if love is around. A wandering heart has made a leap over the mountains and flew back to home.
