Connections

Three weeks ago, we were four strangers in two time zones speaking three different mother tongues, gathered together in a virtual space.
While wanting to address the theme of post-pandemic hopes, we felt compelled to observe the processes that could lead us to communicate about it in the first place.
How could we translate each other’s thoughts into our own musical or linguistic identities, and what could be found in that welcoming and active listening?
Could we really be seen through the lenses of our devices?
Connections is an opera which retells the delicate and dramatic quest of human communication.
