This show journeys into the theme of ‘doikayt’, the yiddish word for hereness: what does it mean to be here for ourselves, with each other, and in solidarity with everything around us when the systems of oppression seek to divide us?
Under the guiding flow of spoken meditation, spell, and incantation, Dali Muru’s show dreamily meanders between newly composed soundscapes, field recordings, samples from archival chassidic melodies, folk songs, to stories of mystical encounters in Islamic Spain, weaving a thread of overlooked forces, resonances, and spiritual intersections across time and space.
Dali Muru & The Polyphonic Swarm is an act of the SHAPE+ platform for innovative music and interdisciplinary art, co-funded by the European Union and Pro Helvetia.
