Projects

The Synesthetic Project

The Synesthetic Project is a multidisciplinary music theatre ensemble developed through a series of collaborations with dancers, visual and multimedia artists creating relationships, connections and expressions of classical music through contemporary art. The project explores the concepts of diversity, understanding, tolerance, communication, of mutual giving and receiving. The goal is to create a world where variety is celebrated, where artists and audience meet without prejudice and boundries of time, style and medium and enjoy the sharing and reinterpretation of their creative stories through another’s eyes. Under the leadership and direction of Nika Bauman, since 2019 the ensemble has created five different productions and performed in Austria, Germany, Ireland and Croatia.
