about

02 - Trung Sisters (ENG)

At the Thang Long Theater in Hanoi, the floating puppet show (Múa rối nước in Vietnamese) is staged every evening. These are fig wood puppets, manually controlled from the bottom of a swimming pool with a long telescopic handle. That of the floating puppets is a millenary tradition born among the rice fields farmers of the Red River delta. A recurrent story in the shows is that of the Trung sisters: Trac and Nhi. Always considered national heroines, they were the first Vietnamese women, in 40 A.D., to lead a revolution against Chinese domination. Not a word in the show: only live music and invisible actors who, like eels, give life to dozens of puppets from the bottom of the pool. A fluctuating poem, between dances, lights, sounds, loves and duels.
Field recording:
The lute was recorded during an improvisation session in a musical instrument shop in Hanoi.

02 – Trung Sisters (ITA)

Al Thang Long Theatre di Hanoi, tutte le sere va in scena lo spettacolo delle marionette galleggianti (Múa rối nước in lingua vietnamita). Si tratta di marionette di legno di fico, governate manualmente dal fondo di una piscina tramite un lungo manico telescopico. Quella delle marionette galleggianti è una tradizione millenaria figlia dei contadini delle risaie del delta del Fiume Rosso. Una storia che ricorre spessisimo negli spettacoli è quella delle sorelle Trung: Trac e Nhi. Da sempre considerate eroine nazionali, furono le prime donne vietnamite, nel 40 d.C., a guidare una rivoluzione contro la dominazione cinese. Non una parola nello spettacolo: solo musica dal vivo e attori invisibili che, come anguille, danno vita a decine di marionette dal fondo della piscina. Una poesia fluttuante, tra danze, luci, suoni, amori e duelli.

Field recording:
Le note di liuto sono state registrate durante una sessione di improvvisazione in un negozio di strumenti musicali di Hanoi.
