Is láithriú cóir nuacheaptha Leide Beag a fuair inspioráid ó théacsanna Aistriú. Is é Ian Wilson a chum, is í Siobhán Ní Dhuinnín a rinne cóiréagrafaíocht air, is é Robbie Blake a stiúir, agus is iad baill Tonnta an One World Voice Choir a láithrigh é.
Is é an saothar guthach seo an toradh ar thréimhse bliana ar caitheadh ag dul i ngleic leis na téacsanna Gaeilge mór le rá seo ina ndéantar cíoradh ar théama na himirce, agus ar phróiseas comhoibrithe le baill an One World Voice Choir, atá lonnaithe in ionad tacaíochta na n-imirceach de chuid Croí na Gaillimhe. Baintear úsáid i Leide Beag as an nglór i gcomhar le gluaiseacht d’fhonn cumasc ceoil agus amhráin a chruthú ina ndéantar scrúdú ar an imirce nua-aimseartha. Tá idir amhráin thraidisiúnta agus píosaí nuachumtha i gceist leis an láithriú agus fitear ina chéile iad ar bhonn saibhir ilchultúrtha ilteangach.
Tuilleadh eolais faoin tionscadal Aistriú
Leide Beag is a newly-devised choral performance inspired by the Aistriú texts and composed by Ian Wilson, choreographed by Siobhán Ní Dhuinnín, directed by Robbie Blake and performed by members of Tonnta and the One World Voice Choir.
This vocal work emerges from a year-long engagement with these celebrated Irish language texts exploring the theme of migration, alongside a collaborative process with members of the One World Voice Choir, based in the Croí na Gaillimhe migrant support centre.
Leide Beag uses the voice with movement to create a patchwork of music and song exploring modern migration. The performance includes traditional songs and new compositions, resulting in a rich multicultural and multilingual weave.
