'Koor van de mensheid' (Choir of humanity) from Kaapdiegoeiekoop by Silbersee, Gouden Haas & NKK NXT
You are now watching the second of the two scenes from Kaapdiegoeiekoop that we decided to still perform at the online edition of Oerol this year. In this scene the sometimes paralyzing speed of current affairs, and our related desire for short-lived happiness and quick sugars to deafen us from reality, are central.
For both clips, all singers and musicians visited the beach separately to perform and sing their parts. On the screen, they merge together to form the Choir of humanity. Enjoy!
Oh, and if you want to see more: ‘Olie’ (‘Oil’), the first of the two scenes from Kaapdiegoeiekoop, is now also online.
