can you hear it?

mpo:oslo
konsert, ibsenkvartalet, 11.07.2007, 19.00.
kammermusikk til folket.

oslo: listening

people
listening
sitting, walking, smoking
peering through large office windows
licking green ice creams
photographing
smiling, nodding in chairs
drinking coffee from paper cups
feet crossed
faces solemn, listening, dreaming
serene

babies
sleeping

the music
flowing, quivering, billowing
waves from the swaying conductor´s hands
his mind translated into music
his feelings, their feelings; the instruments
toes moving to the rhytm
I see the reflection of the bow through the violinist´s glasses
closeness

the buildings
towering, upwards
sandy, black, the greys of the pavement stones
large square windows
smooth surfaced
shining
dark, reflecting

the traffic soft
hushing
a plane passing
the sky
blue, grey
cloudy, floating
everything
floating, rolling
moving

the orchestra
the audience

applause

the baby wakes
