miji symphony


for private performance


wash your hands carefully. listen. discover the sounds.
dry your hands. listen.

close your ears with the flat palms of your hands. listen.
while keeping the palms on your ears, move your fingers slowly and softly freely in the air. listen.
still with palms on ears, change your breathing gently in depth and rhythm. listen.
play with changing the pressure of your palms onto your ears. listen.
circle your palms on your ears with a gentle friction. listen.

remove your palms from your ears. touch your ears gently with the tips of your fingers from all sides. explore. listen.

remove your hands gently from your ears. let them rest. listen to the sounds in your ears. listen to the sounds around you.

wash your hands carefully. listen. discover new sounds.
dry your hands. listen.
