Klapa

Description

A choir that no longer exists meets on a stage. Nothing happens. Hardened landscape. And then, very quietly, someone begins to sing. Memories arise – of songs, mountains, and the sea. How does community form? How do we meet in a world marked by lines of conflict, how do we withstand it and face conflicts united as friends? "Klapa" is a Dalmatian, multi-voiced a cappella singing. Patricija Katica Bronić and her team combine it in "Klapa" with Swiss yodeling and begin a performative dialogue between cultures and people. Before the performance on Saturday, there is an opportunity to sing together under the direction of Patricija Katica Bronić. Workshop before the performance on 19.12.2026 Joint open singing. No prior knowledge is required – only the desire for community and curiosity about new sounds. Registration at mail@buehne-aarau.ch. Language: little language (Croatian & German)
