Svadba (Wedding) Serbian composer Ana Sokolovic, established in 2011, is an original lyrical work: it is sung a cappella by six young performers on a bare stage! Initially surprised, the viewer soon joined them in their world. They met to spend a last night with one of them getting married the next day. They sing, play, dance. The engine of the representation, it is the sounds onomatopéisés, whispered, chuintés, chanted, hammered. feet clapping, galloping, spoons stirred into a bowl, clapping, they mobilize the body. Ted Huffman and Zack Winokur, both directors, have also abandoned those sounds to find their fair scenic equivalences: they become fascinating choreography. Each viewer then understands and feels the experiences these young women, concluding shine of their youth, are on the verge of an uncertain future.
"Svadba, opera Anah Sokolovi? [...] is a dazzling beauty. In an hour long, an hour of music and pure theater, the Serbian composer, six singers and two directors Ted Huffman and Zack Winokur create a world of shifting emotions, through the evocation of a standby wedding in the Balkans. [...] Far from observing remote rituals it evokes, Ana Sokolovic is used to make his characters exist. In this it reinvents opera, not by telling a story but conjuring emotion through the interplay of voices and bodies set situation. The effect is immediate: we feel with the characters emotions that is more just an ordinary time (marriage), but the decisive passage without child back to an unknown world, at once hoped , feared, dreamed and laughed. Classic concert, Jean-Guillaume Lebrun
