Three and one-half tons of golden-colored rice, cascading in a thin line from the top of the stage onto a still figure, for 90 minutes.

Labrynth of rice: "Songs of the Wanderers" performanceChanging light highlighted angles and shapes created by the fallen rice while a figure at the side stood motionless under a constant stream of falling rice. The movement of the modern dancers flowed to the sound of Gregorian chants, interweaving with the grains of rice, gracefully, and sometimes in fits.

Perfect ending to a rare performing experience, leaving me with the stunning visuals Labrynth of rice: "Songs of the Wanderers" performancestreaming through my mind.
