All rituals are marriages of sorts. And marriage is the original meaning of the Svatbata: a dizzying confluence of vocal gestures and gestural song, capable of saying in every note, every step, every modulation and every variation, that mystery doesn’t go inward but outwards – that it only bursts forth, to deploy the infinity of its strata and nuances in all directions; to become a habitable space; a human garden of signals. And to remember that it’s from one and the same depth that arises both the movement of life, and the immobility of death. Marriages are, in a way, funerals.
Funerals are, in a way, weddings. Aren’t both rituals accompanied by flowers? Because without exce ption, everything – love, death and flowers – belongs to the Earth. Including dance.
