ÓME

A duet by
Silje Onstad Hålien &
Sivert Andreas Holmen

Óme refers to the softened sound of reverberation.
How does the fiddle fill the room so it reverberates, and what is left in dance
when the sound dies out?

The performers explore sound, movement, meeting points and divergences
between music and dance, and between dancer and musician.

A folk musical expression meets contemporary currents
in a detail-rich performance.
