A.M.

Arnoud Noordegraaf, Mikae Natsuyama

Arnoud Noordegraaf’s multimedia performance A.M. for soprano, four instruments and video installation was inspired by Tokyo and the novels of Haruki Murakami. An Angel of the Night, Japanesesoprano Mikae Natsuyama guides us through the video story of a boy and a girl searching for their identities on a magical night in Tokyo, where they meet, part, then find each other again.Noordegraaf uses a broad spectrum of tone colours, city sounds and samples of Japanese night club music to evoke the elusive magic of this magnetic city. The video tells the story from various angles, shown simultaneously on multiple screens in a special Holland Festival version with live music.
