Qamar | Qabar Poetry in Sight & Sound - APS Summer Festival

With visual interventions using objects and light from Austin Camilleri, to the live music from Alex Vella Gregory and Simon Abdilla Joslin and the captivating voice of Miriam Cauchi, Qamar | Qabar brings a one of a kind performance, created exclusively for the APS Summer Festival. Life is full of cycles. Our existence is based on the perpetual regeneration of natural and human cycles. Even Art is not immune to cycles as with each performance or viewing we re-engage with a work of art, imbuing it with new meaning. Taking Vella Gregory’s song cycle Mill-Qamar sal-Qabar as its starting point, this performance celebrates these life cycles. Composer Alex Vella Gregory, has teamed up with visual artist Austin Camilleri, soprano Miriam Cauchi, and cellist Simon Abdilla Joslin, to create this unique project where poetry, music, and visual art come together as one. Austin Camilleri's work explores the transience of these cycles by creating a visual environment that brings together light, video and sculptural objects. The resulting work will see Maltese poetry from across the ages, contemporary music, and contemporary visual art come together in this one exclusive performance. Audience 16+. Under 16 accompanied by an adult. Early bird tickets at €15 via promo code: EARLYAPS
