Limbo is a monodrama inspired by the Danish writer Ole Sarvig’s 1963 novel by the same name. The libretto is written by the Russian writer Anna Plichkounova. As in the novel, we encounter a character trying to find the balance between the outer, physical world – governed by rationality and facts -, and the inner world – governed by irrationality and emotions. The two singers represent these contradicting dimensions in one and the same person, gradually reaching a certain level of mutual understanding and balance. Limbo was written for Århus Sinfonietta in 2010.
