8 singers and performers will let their voicees guide the audience up through the Round Tower’s iconic Spiral Ramp and all the way to the tower’s top. The piece “Gravitational Shift” is a wandering choir concert where the audience will be immersed in song and sound. During the performance, the performance will pause at specific locations in the beautiful, coiling space and invite the audience to sing along.

A Music of Pain
”Gravitational Shift” is a choir composition based on the scream of women giving birth. It is timestretched to reveal the melodic qualities within. The piece carries a wish to share isolating experiences of pain and make them accessible through music. Thus, the work is intended to travel through a multitude of bodies and voices to achieve a multi-facetted, human tone.

The concert performance is part of Art Week Copenhagen 2023.
