ICCC conjures the life and stories of the stoic sailors aboard a whaling vessel at the mercy of the sea: viscerally in touch with the unpredictably dangerous elements of the waters, while doggedly in pursuit of financial gain. The world premiere of ICCC is staged at the Newhouse Center at Snug Harbor in Staten Island, a landmarked former dormitory building dating back to 1833, when Snug Harbor served as a pioneering rest home for sailors. The choreography by Melanie Aceto and her choreo lab ensemble will incorporate a rope-like material that references the significance, strength, and language of ropes aboard a 19th century ship.
Vocal and instrumental performers from a consortium of ensembles including Brooklyn Youth Choir Bass Ensemble, Grace Chorale, Brooklyn Treble Choir, New York Choir Project, and Brooklyn Conservatory Community Orchestra surround the audience, giving viewers a 360-degree immersive experience amid an authentic, historic, unforgettable maritime setting.
Founded in 2016 by Stanzi Vaubel, PhD, The Indeterminacy Festival is committed to creating exceptional opportunities for lifelong artists. IF invites an intergenerational ensemble of over one hundred community and professional artists to collaborate on the development and staging of large-scale works. The Festival is a recipient of a Fulbright Fellowship, New York State Council on the Arts, with corporate sponsorship from Neuberger Berman Group. IF has been staged by invitation and support by the Governors Island Trust, McGill University, the University at Buffalo, the University at Malta, and Alfred University. Look out for IF’s recording of Fourteen Porches commissioned by the Grace Chorale to be released in 2025.
