With the music theatre piece Between Two Lights, the Netherlands Chamber Choir and Music Theatre Transparant present a world premiere by renowned Chinese-American composer Huang Ruo. In Between Two Lights, he wants to make death tangible. Not with terrifying visions, but in a ritual that offers comfort and in which we gently open ourselves up to the thought of death. By doing so, we feel closer to those who have passed away and come closer to being at peace with our own mortality. In his work, Huang Ruo blends elements of Asian and Western culture, and his new style of music creates a bridge between these two seemingly completely different worlds.
