Abstract

The Belgian new-music ensemble Nadar created a Zoom performance titled FITTINGinSIDE, which is tailored to a world in the grip of a pandemic. It balances ritual, artistic play and collective performance, all blended in a way that astonishes the ears. We followed Nadar's course through the pandemic and studied their techniques. How did Nadar manage to turn the crisis into – yet again – a new, creative starting point? How ‘live’ did the new ‘live’ feel? And is FITTINGinSIDE the format of the future?
