Heresong / Cybina is a site-specific vocal composition for five female voices — an encounter between space, sound, and the micro-tensions that arise between them.
The piece emerges through mapping the acoustic environment, deep listening, and conscious vocal participation within it. Immersed in the living soundscape of a specific place, the performance invites the listener to open their ears wider — to attune to what is already sounding.
At its core lies the embrace of the unknown: the spontaneous occurrences, echoes and resonances that belong to the site itself. The Cybina River flows through Poznań — a city of half a million inhabitants in western Poland — and in Heresong two forces meet: the composed sound of the raw human voice and the multilayered acoustic tissue of this riverine landscape.
Heresong invites a more attentive form of listening — to the smallest details as well as to the overwhelming, immersive sound of place. It offers space for each listener to build a personal, embodied relationship with the sonic layer of reality.
