  • Operaharmony
    #OPERAHARMONY CREATING OPERAS IN ISOLATION 1 3 WELCOME TO #OPERA HARMONY FROM FOUNDER – ELLA MARCHMENT Welcome to #OperaHarmony. #Opera Harmony is a collection of opera makers from across the world who, during this time of crisis, formed an online community to create new operas. I started this initiative when the show that I was rehearsing at Dutch National Opera was cancelled because of the lockdown. Using social media and online platforms I invited colleagues worldwide to join me in the immense technical and logistical challenge of creating new works online. I set the themes of ‘distance’ and ‘community’, organised artist teams, and since March have been overseeing the creation of twenty new operas. All the artists involved in #OperaHarmony are highly skilled professionals who typically apply their talents in creating live theatre performances. Through this project, they have had to adapt to working in a new medium, as well as embracing new technologies and novel ways of creating, producing, and sharing work. #OperaHarmony’s goal was to bring people together in ways that were unimaginable prior to Covid-19. Over 100 artists from all the opera disciplines have collaborated to write, stage, record, and produce the new operas. The pieces encapsulate an incredibly dark period for the arts, and they are a symbol of the unstoppable determination, and community that exists to perform and continue to create operatic works. This has been my saving grace throughout lockdown, and it has given all involved a sense of purpose. When we started building these works we had no idea how they would eventually be realised, and it is with great thanks that we acknowledge the support of Opera Vision in helping to both distribute and disseminate these pieces, and also for establishing a means in which audiences can be invited into the heart of the process too .

  • Cie Ioannis Mandafounis ©Gregory Batardon 205 Worldwide Shows in the Last 3 Years
    cie ioannis mandafounis ©Gregory Batardon 205 worldwide shows in the last 3 years REPERTORY «‘‘ Mysterious, rigorous, funny, the choreo- grapher’s pieces challenge a rational compre- hension, but they also sharpen curiosity and fascinate with the dancers’ quality of move- ment and their presence.’’ Myriam Kridi, Le Phare, September 2014 Before becoming a freelance choreographer, Ioannis Mandafounis was part of the Gothenburg Opera Ballet, the Nederlands Dans Theater II and a member of the Forsythe Company from 2005 to 2009. Ioannis Mandafounis co-founded his company as well as the artistic col- lective Mamaza in 2009. Through his work, he developed a choreographic space that questions the tension between visual image and the physical feeling it produces in the viewer, or rather between the physical image and the visual feeling. With his collaborators, he’s always searching for new opportunities to ac- quaint spectators with dance. He cultivates “a way of seeing”, making the spectator responsible for his experience as a viewer and inviting him/her to invest in what they are seeing in order to live a real experience. This desire to involve the spectator, to invite them to push open the “doors to percep- tion”, so to speak, is a constant in his performances.
