ANAMONI
Waiting is inextricably linked to our perception of time. It stretches endlessly
when we await something uncertain or eagerly desired. For some, waiting is paralyzing
- an unbearable suspense of inertia. For others, it is wasteful
- a drain on time, energy, and opportunities. However, waiting is more than a passive state
- it is a deep test of endurance, a mirror reflecting our vulnerabilities in the face of the unknown.
What can it contain, what is it that creates the discomfort of listening to and experiencing waiting?
By giving meaning to the cessation of waiting as part of our evolutionary process, the concept of procrastination also takes on a different meaning.
Pythia Trio, faithful to its five-year course, approaches a new theme that can occupy completely different groups, but its various aspects certainly touch the wider audience. Embarrassment, fear, anticipation, boredom, uncertainty, and many other emotional conditions flirt or dominate moments of our everyday life. With humor, creativity, and tenderness, the ensemble tries to illuminate moments of waiting, and its imprint on the reactions and experiences of those involved.
With new assignments to composers Ismini Beck, Giorgos Kyriakakis and Aspasia Nasopoulou and an adaptation of works by Niki Krasaki and Brice Catherin, the Pythia trio creates a new musical theater work lasting approximately one hour, without interruption for applause. The performers, consistently in their path so far, continue to explore and seek new means, materials and techniques in the performance of the instrument, through contemporary music creation and its interaction with other arts. Original musical compositions, movement, speech, singing, narration and painting coexist as a continuation of the performances that the Pythia trio has been serving with dedication in recent years.
