ÉG HLUSTA Á VINDINN

- I LISTEN TO THE WIND

Ég hlusta á vindinn is a Finnish- Icelandic theatre performance especially for babies. The premiere was 3rd July 2014 in Edinborg Cultural Center in Ísafjörður, West Fjords of Iceland.  The performance is made for babies aged three months and older, as well as for toddlers. The piece explores the world and makes it visible through our senses. This calming but stimulating piece gives a unique experience to both big and small members of the family.

 

Ég hlusta á vindinn takes its inspiration from an ancient idea of motherhood and the heritage of generations. Lyrics of the performance are based on Icelandic poet Edda, Finnish national epic Kanteletar and some old poems from Iceland. The piece emphasizes the exclusive sound and rhythm of the lyrics.
