Global Arts Live is thrilled to present "Noisefloor," a unique collaboration between Palaver Strings and the contemporary little house dance based in Portland, Maine. In this interdisciplinary performance, twelve musicians and eight dancers join forces, premiering a new composition by Courtney Swain written specifically for choreography by Heather Stewart. This project seamlessly integrates the media of music and dance, involving dancers in the composition process and including musicians in little house’s movement language. "Noisefloor" plays with the subjectivity of human experience, using architecture and acoustics to transform the traditional proscenium theater into an atmospheric cave. Musicians and dancers move throughout the stage and surrounding areas, expanding the audience’s audiovisual field.
