May 2014, Orgelpark, 60’

In Lovyrinths I/O collaborated with the established early music Ensemble Genesis. The libretto for this project about love that is not idealized – love as a kaleidoscope of efforts to complete a gesture; falling in or out of love – was written by Andriana Minou, a London-based author and pianist, and featured the Swedish vocalist Anni Elif Egecioglou. Lovyrinths were I/O’s first production at the Orgelpark – our fruitful collaboration continues and will result in the performance I/Orgel in April 2016.
