Aya Suzuki - Nine bells

In Nine Bells, Aya Suzuki moves among an array of nine metal bells like a Japanese Butoh dancer. American composer Tom Johnson not only set down the notes of this piece, but also the path the performer has to follow through the instruments. The result is a repetitive, hypnotic ritual for the eyes and ears. Aya uses Johnson’s original bells from 1979. This performance will take place on the occasion of the opening of the exhibition Shin hanga - The new prints of Japan (1900-1960) at the Art and History Museum.
