- ya.
- It’s good…
- actually it’s…
- but ——
Then the world change
banished and persecuted,
(various outcasts) forced into hiding
lived together in the wilderness
some became extinct,
some found their way into towns and villages,
and only on certain nights do they now meet their fate
Some died
Some grew smaller in size so that nowadays you cannot tell them apart from other small
Insects
- I got you…
- I may try…
struck blind for committing such a sacrilege
covering like a horse and then weep like a man
The Centaur, a half-human, half-horse immortal prehistoric creature, feels guilty that his race was annihilated by humans while he was helpless to do anything about it. This half-human, half-horse has been wandering the world ever since, turning into a nocturnal creature just to stay away from the entire human species. Home, has become so far away, only residing in him. He couldn’t see himself setting his foot on, even just once more. As he sees other ancient species around him gradually disappear, he deals with severe internal conflict, torn between being “man” and “horse”.
Hello, we are Ka Man, Chole and Bruce, and this is a revamped version of “Echoes in Dreams” (first produced in 2023, based on José Saramago‘s renowned novel "The Centaur"). We present to you, an old but everlasting story, with a classical guitar, six strings, three living souls and bodies.
Glimmering lights drift through space and time, surfacing and resurfacing , pulling, exiling, dancing, letting go, and celebrating.
Inspired by Portuguese writer José Saramago’s short story “The Centaur”, Swiss psychologist Carl Gustav Jung’s “Memories, Dreams, Reflections”, and a guitar suite by Argentinian composer and guitarist José Luis Merlin:
1. Suite del Recuredo
2. Sueno Con Caballos (Dream with horses)
3. Cinco Canciones De Amor (Five Love Songs)
