About the Event

Dynamic duo Baye & Asa lead a movement workshop to wrap-up the first day of the 2023 BlackLight Summit. We'll activate allfive senses to enlarge the experience of performance, to expand beyond practical execution of movement, to give nuance and idiosyncratic presence to each dancer. Class is sweaty.  Everyone is welcome.

Acclaimed in Europe’s contemporary music scene, Lugano Percussion Ensemble is based in its namesake city in Switzerland’s only majority-Italian-speaking Canton. Its first members were students at the Swiss Italian Conservatory (CSI/Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana) led by Professor Mircea Ardeleanu. It focused on contemporary music with a particular attention to the fusion of musical and theatrical language elements and a continuous sound research.
