Klankhuis (soundhouse). Live soundscape in former warehouse "Het Veem". In
four different spaces different tape-compositions are interpretations of one
lead-composition based on fragments of cello-harmonics. The lead-composition
shall be played in a fifth room by the cellist. Except playing the
lead-composition, the cellist can choose to improvise on one of the other
compositions. In a sixth room the composer controls everything to be heard.
The public moves from one space to the other and can actively take part of
the acoustic environment.
