LITTLE THEATRE OF ANCIENT EPIDAURUS
14 & 15 AUGUST / 21:30
MUSIC
Savina Yannatou - Primavera en Salonico
featuring Lamia Bedioui
Watersong
“Of his bones are coral made / Those are pearls that were his eyes”: Savina Yannatou and Primavera en Salonico are inspired by Ariel’s song in Shakespeare’s The Tempest to create Watersong, a musical performance featuring songs about water and desert, life and death, fertility, magic, desire, and purification. The artists are joined by Tunisian singer Lamia Bedioui, whose distinctive voice will transport the Little Theatre of Ancient Epidaurus to the realm of the desert.
The Arabic language and the Bedouin dialect will cross paths with Mediterranean languages. Oud, kanonaki, ney, violin, accordion, percussion, waterphone and contrabass are the instruments accompanying the vocals, combining traditional influences with free improvisation. Traditional and Renaissance songs from several countries are mixed together, spinning tales about water and its power, about the life that water can both give and take away. Songs about rain, the sea, rivers, tears, drops; water on the body; the body immersed into the water; ultimately, our body.
