"Ethnic Love Mix Vol.12" is the newest show within our multicultural project Remix ID, which I directed.
It was quite a journey this past months (July-Oct 2022) to put together an amazing amount of documentary material into a show, a performance, including dance and video art. The sprit of the Timis county and their 12 ethnic groups means tolerance and togetherness. It's a pleasure having such a love fulfilled theme to work with. The show is a summary of the traditions, music, dances and food of the Banat region mixed in the tumultuous urban mixer of the new generations.
By my side was the Argentinian choreographer Gisela Heredia. Her choreography contained folklore dance steps from the Hungarian, Serbian, German, Bulgarian communities mixed with contemporary and Argentinian moves. It was a pleasure to work with her and seeing the openness and flexibility in her work with the dancers. The performers have different dancing backgrounds and they succeeded to have a very strong team performance. Andreea Irksousi, Eugen Curelici (street-dancers), Dejan Berecici (Serbian folklore dancer), Antonia Itineant (contemporary dancer), Cosmin Antal, Andrei Augurencei (Romanian folklore dancers),Luca Marcu (ballet dancer).
The music and sound design was made by Octavian Horvath, who also composed new remixed songs for the show. The video projections were made by Eugen Neacsu.
I was honoured to work with Ioan Fodor, the accordionist of the German ensemble "Rosmarein" and a very old friend of our project. His scene in the show were very emotional, giving the audience a true moment of nostalgia.
