World premiere

A trio blending music and neuroscience. Since the dawn of time, human beings have lived as both prey and predator. Cellist Jorge Giménez and pianist Matteo Bevilacqua challenge and chase one another in a musical hunt through the works of Beethoven, Mendelssohn and some famous film scores, whilst their emotional states, monitored by a neural headset, are transformed into visual art. They are accompanied by the intense and engaging monologues of Roberto Mercadini, which explore the most human side of this ancestral struggle, amid fear, courage and curiosity.
