Hekate: Hex Liminal

It is hard not to be blown away the first time you hear HEKATE. 

Synnøve Brøndbo Plassen, Malin Victoria Alander and Silje Risdal Liahagen are among the best Norwegian folk singers around today. In HEKATE, they do slåttetralling, a form of singing that traditionally accompanies dance. They reshape this style with surprising results, creating tight, microtonal harmonies, detailed arrangements and hypnotizing rhythmic patterns. The dance company Mamelukk features strong, female performers with a background in Norwegian folk music and dance. Known for blending voice and movement, modern and traditional impulses, Mamelukk have made a place for themselves in dance forms traditionally dominated by male performers. Both groups move their audience and put them in immediate contact with the past, present and future of this music and dance in ways they don’t expect.

In their first collaborative project, Hex Liminal, HEKATE and Mamelukk takes it one step further. 

A liminal phase occurs in rituals when participants no longer hold their pre-ritual status but have not yet begun the transition to the status they will hold when the rite is complete. A state of ambiguity and unpredictability. This is the place HEKATE and Mamelukk wants to invite the audience in Hex Liminal. To erase the borders between performers and audience, to summon forth shadows, song, breath and movement.  

Together, HEKATE and Mamelukk will create a catchy, enticing and at times slightly unsettling universe. This is Hex Liminal.
