In Black Rainbow, Julija Hartig explores what home can mean: identity, heritage, and connection, all drawing from her roots in Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Austria. The title piece uses violin, voice, and live electronics to tell the story of three generations of women on the move, interwoven with folk elements and the voices of her ancestors, a bridge between past and present. Janáček, Say, Enescu, The Wind Between Places by Philip Przybyło, and new work by Hartig herself demonstrate how everyone carries a musical heritage in their backpack. After a Wonderfeel preview last year at De Boekenbar, you can catch the full program today at Het Nest.
