Ea Sola (Viet Nam) - Drought and Rain

The culmination of Ea Sola’s research to the history of Vietnam was 1995’s Drought and Rain, a work that celebrates historical and cultural memory and meditates on the cost of conflict and imperialism. Now, 16 years later, together with a group of elderly women from the north of Vietnam whose singing had consoled the soldiers in the front lines and an ensemble of six virtuoso traditional musicians, Ea Sola has recreated this moving work.

Shifting between hypnotically slow, graceful movements and urgent, almost visceral reactions, they create a powerful and hugely compelling account of the human legacy of war with performers who lived through it.
