BEartH is a multi-art performance of original mixed music for contra tenor and bass voices, clarinet, bass clarinet, violoncello and piano, pre-recorded parts of electroacoustic music, and dancing. As is obvious from its title, the work revolves around four axes: Genesis, Existence, Earth, Creation. Τhe tetradic character of Tetractys is innate in almost all of the structural parts of this work, which is the fruit of the study of Hesiod’s Theogony, John’s Revelation, the Orphic Hymns, William Blake, John Milton and Dante Alighieri’s poetry and Nikos Kazantzakis’ Askitiki. Its connective links are the power of creation, the necessity of harmonizing man with his natural environment, existential concerns, and the contrast of opposite-complementary notions. Excerpts from the original texts will also be heard through set poetry and narration.
