before/now/after in naarm

前・今・後、メルボルン/ナルム

After a busy month of performance at the Expo, Duo Aki returned to Melbourne for a performance on home soil: live in Naarm/Melbourne on Friday 30th of May, 7pm, at the Mission to the Seafarers, Docklands.

For the first time, we presented the show in a fully immersive 70-minute experience, featuring moments of improvisation, spontaneity and nostalgia.

Our concert details were broadcast on ClassikOn, What’s On Melbourne, and Continuo.

It was truly wonderful to share our work with a new community back home, and a thank you to the University of Melbourne’s IgniteLab grants for supporting this project!

Before we made it to the Expo, we presented our show for the very first time at Eden’s exchange uni, the International College of Liberal Arts, in Yamanashi, Japan.

It was wonderful to share our show with audiences from across the globe: not only students, but friends and colleagues from Japan too. Live looping, custom visuals and bilingual narration: what more do you need?

We were pretty proud of the poster, if you can’t tell…
