A MOVEMENT
video for Sanna Helena Berger's Original composition and sonic space
"Sonata" by Bruce Lund
Cherche Encore, 2021
SANNA HELENA BERGER
A movement is a 10 piece suite. 5 original compositions by Sanna Helena Berger and 5 interpretations by artists Ewa Awe, Hoyah, Alise Sofie Rainer, Matilda Tjäder and Berger herself.
The movement grows with the corresponding videos which score the sounds with gestures and choreography by Veronica Bruce and Karoline Bakke Lund, Efva Lilja, Shade Théret, Mikhail Baryshnikov sampled and Berger herself. Attempting to connect all 10 sounds and visuals not only by text but by interpretative actions. The original 5 piece composition topically dealt with the pause. The in-between sound, the orchestral warm-up, the audible prelude to a performance. An ode to sounds which are not the “central sound”, but the unsorted sounds around and in between the centre. As a movement, these are works which do not only encompass sound. This is an album which is audible, visual and textual — A movement. Something moving, changing, pitching up and down, as an audible tempo and as a physical form. Momentum building.
