„pan dora“ is based on Bernhard Weiss’ music for the butoh-performance „PanD’orA - Shades of Hope“ by DaniMayu and her Company MayuKan. Sounds and fragments of the original soundtrack are condensed into an independent track. „pan dora“ consists exclusively of partially heavily processed recordings of acoustic instruments (gongs, kamalen goni, windchimes, cymbals and tibetan singing bowls) and field recordings.

The performance was to have taken place in Vienna in early November 2020, but had to be cancelled and postponed indefinitely due to a lockdown.

About the piece „PanD’orA - Shades of Hope“:

After 20 years of being a butoh performer and choreographer, DaniMayu revived her Company MayuKan in order to create her new piece „PanD'orA - Shades of Hope“. In her new production Dani Mayu is honouring her body of work by incorporating quotes from over 30 pieces of hers.

Starting from Pandora's Box, the members of the Company show different aspects of hope in the tension between the general positive connotation of today and in the sense of Friedrich Nietzsche, who in „Human, All too Human“ describes hope as the worst of all evils.
