Benedicte Maurseth and Mikhail Karikis share further insight into their work during a Q and A. |
Civitella Ranieri
Tuesday, August 30, 2016
Monday evening, composer Benedicte Maurseth (CRF 2016) and visual artist Mikhail Karikis (CRF 2016) took the floor to demonstrate the communicative power of art in their full-length presentations.
Benedicte Maurseth kicked off the evening with traditional Norwegian pieces brought to life by her Hardanger fiddle, and her beautiful voice. She played many folk songs, including some religious hymns that have been integral parts of the Norwegian oral tradition for hundreds of years. She closed her presentation with a more contemporary piece that she composed herself. During this concert, the feeling she poured into her music was inspired by and dedicated to those who suffered the ravages of last week's earthquake in Central Italy.
