How do we experience silence in this technological age? How can we connect with our environment through listening?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>La Floresta<\/em> is a visual sound concert that takes you into a deep sensory experience. It is a complex and layered interplay of listening and experiencing that goes beyond a regular concert, embracing both personal experience and collective experience. In an innovative way, <em>La Floresta<\/em> weaves participation, awareness, connection and rituals into a unique overall experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We all share the same ability to listen. With <em>La Floresta<\/em>, you are invited to open your ears, stand still and listen to sounds that, in our often busy lives, we pass by. Do we hear the richness of a complex polyphony, or do we experience one overall sound? The performance starts with a short listening walk in the Hageven nature reserve. Then Hans Beckers, Indr\u0117 Jurgelevi\u010di\u016bt\u0117 and Nathan Daems engage in dialogue with sound sculptures that go back to the roots of music, with materials used by humans in their earliest expressions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The performance, in which nature and technology merge organically, is a sound ceremony in which each step contributes to a more conscious, receptive and sensory experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Installation and composition: Hans Beckers &#8211; Performers: Nathan Daems (tenor sax, kaval and ney), Indr\u0117 Jurgelevi\u010di\u016bt\u0117 (vocals and kankl\u0117s), Hans Beckers (guitar, clarinet, objects and sound sculptures) &#8211; Dramaturgy: Jolien Van De Sande &#8211; Technique: Gregor Van Mulders &#8211; Metalwork: Danny Vandeput<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>La Floresta is a concept and production by Hans Beckers, in co-production with Concertgebouw Brugge, Klarafestival, Werkplaats Walter, STUK, Zonzo Compagnie and iii (instrument inventors initiative), supported by Roskot workshop, Les Ateliers Claus and the Flemish Government.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/hansbeckers.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">hansbeckers.be<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Hans Beckers La Floresta\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/643980151?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"1320\" height=\"743\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.ticket.monster\/event\/oortreders-festival-idpyry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Buy your tickets now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/12mBN2Fl8OXkOIX5bIGdnK4y81X7E7Ewm\/view?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Digital Leaflet<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;The contrast between the natural environment and the intrusive world of technology could not be greater.
