CORATIUM

Vintani Nafassi – djembe, bows, vocals , electronics

Nicolle Vieira- dance and text

Manuela Lucia Tessi- dance

Coratium was performed in Lisbon and Cape Town, born out of the MusicDance projects

Coratium – from the Latin, “courage” – speaks to actions born from the heart: the courage to leave behind the familiar, face the unknown, and embrace the lack of control. It is the freedom to choose and to accept irrevocable choices.

This performance of instant composition explores the encounter between differences, breaking boundaries and taking risks in real time. Each gesture, sound, and word weaves a web of immediate decisions, creating a unique and unpredictable narrative before the audience. Dance, music, and text intertwine to reveal the imagination that courage awakens.
