Story-telling and sentiments from Ibsen's text and Grieg's music; transform into symbolic gestures in a choreographic voyage. Within the multitude of characters in a musical landscape, Peer seeks to isolate singular essences; pure touch, sound, feeling, human, nature. In pursuit of a tangible-sonic vision, laying open sublime connections, the piece draws a world of color and imagery in a self contained, poetic universe.
