What happens when six bodies and six voices try to think, feel, and move as one—and as many—at the same time? In Infinétude, rhythm becomes a shared language, a living pulse where dance, sound, and emotion fold into one another.4-5/3 2026 ● Doors 18.30 ● On stage 19.00 ● 70 min
Infinétude is a performance where six people join to create sounded and danced rhythms together. The performance is as much a concert for six voices as it is a dance performance
for six bodies. The creation of layered rhythmical, both visual and aural patterns, becomes the baseline on top of which dance, song and thought are woven.
The thinking we are circling around is the relation of abstraction; or pattern making; and emotions. We try to pay attention to and amplify the joy of a syncopation, the sorrow held in a timbre of the voice, the anger connected to a certain movement, the resistance embedded in a melody and so forth and so on. Polyrhythmic being (the constant attempt to not be single-minded), multiplicity that celebrates singularity, porosity and the ability to both listen and act is practiced by dancing, singing and thinking together.
The title refers to three things. Infinitude, which is the sensed quality of something that could go on and on and on. The É is singled out and stands for the work on and with emotional connectedness. In a time when emotionality is being hijacked by neo-fascism it feels necessary to understand how to be simultaneously clear-minded and heartfelt. And finally Étude refers to the attempt to deeply study the different (complex) ways in which we can play, shape and change space and time with our movement and our voices.
BIO
Alma Söderberg is a choreographer and performer who works with music and dance. She uses her voice and body to play space as if it was an instrument. Her ongoing research deals with how we listen as we look; the relation between the ear and the eye. She has grounded her practice in several solo performances but has also created duos, trios and group works in collaboration with different artists, collectives and institutions. She has mainly trained in contemporary dance and flamenco at a.o: Matilde Coral Escuela de Danza in Seville, Amor de dios in Madrid, Gotlands dansutbildningar in Visby and SNDO in Amsterdam. Since 2019 she also does occasional curations, for example the EarEye festival with the same focus as in her practice.
