Ascension

An open-air musical performance
Ascension is the latest musical composition, intended for voice and chamber ensemble, by Russian composer Alexander Manotskov. This site-specific composition, written specifically for the evocative ascent towards the Vigiljoch / San Vigilio mountain, is grounded in sound and space around the idea of pilgrimage and ascent. An ascent that is not only metaphorical, but also literal: during the performance, the audience is invited to gradually move together with the musicians towards the summit of the mountain, through a series of musical and visual experiences. Alongside a contemporary repertoire, there will be some traditional songs, such as the famous Adiyukh song linked to the Caucasus epic and performed by Circassian singer and artist Svetlana Mamresheva. Ascension is not only site-specific, but also ensemble-specific, as it was composed specifically for Kymatic, the contemporary music ensemble led by multi-instrumentalist Alina Petrova and devoted to the newest experimentation in music.
