She has been collaborating with the French Circus artist Jérôme Thomas, as well as Franck Ténot and the Ensemble 09. In 16 performances between June and the end of August there could be heard newly commissioned works by Karlheinz Essl, Matthew Hindson and Max Nagl, as well as other works by John Cage, Stephen Montague, Karlheinz Essl and György Ligeti's "Poème Symphonique" for 100 metronomes! The wonderful French costume designer Emmanuelle Grobet has created the costumes for the show and French light designer Bernard Revel has done the magic lights for Circus Lebasi. To be continued....
