[FuckUp Night] - EXAUDI ENSEMBLE

for vocal ensemble

composed by Monika Dalach Sayers

performed by EXAUDI Ensemble 

 

[FuckUp Night] for vocal ensemble. The piece has the setting of a social meeting and is performed around a table in a closed, intimate circle. The table surface is used as a sound source. Culturally, the table is considered as a place of social meetings where people can eat, talk, contemplate or gossip. 

 

The voices do not represent any particular character or individual. Each voice brings a story of the business that crashed and burned, or the partnership deal that went sour. The short stories are taken from the @SoSadToday Twitter account. The piece is inspired by the new cultural phenomenon known as Fuck Up Nights which brings a level of intimacy, laughter, and authenticity that is unparalleled by any other event.​​
