Anthropos

Guillermo Rozenthuler | Jaka Škapin | Kate Smith | Sylvia Schmidt 

Anthropos, directed by Guillermo Rozenthuler, is a joyful exploration of the songs that humans might have made before music became a commodity. The ensemble is made up of five vocal artists from diverse cultural backgrounds who are united by a common curiosity about the human voice and its possibilities. Together they ask, "How do you share the grief of a loss or the jubilation of a new life's arrival? What are the signals to sow, nurture, or reap? Did our ancestors have to sing all night to keep each other warm?"

Anthropos' songs are immediate collaborative compositions, a celebration of music - from the primal to the contemporary and from the profound to the playful.
