This project will involve 4 artists: Karen Power (composer / live electronics), Mary Nunan (dancer and choreographer), Deirdre O’Leary (clarinet/ bass clarinet) and Kate Ellis (cello).

Movement of sound seeks to combine movement and sound in a way that will speak across a number of artistic platforms, attracting fresh and untried audiences and creating new and more complete experiences of movement, sound, movement through sound and sound through movement.
Movement of Sound features the new work once upon a space, the result of an intensive collaboration between renowned dancer Mary Nunan, composer Karen Power, and two of Ireland’s foremost musicians, Kate Ellis and Deirdre O' Leary. A conversation between dance/movement, space and sound, it headlines a choreographed program of Irish Premieres that explore sound in movement and movement of sound.
