Choreographer Ingun Bjørnsgaard and dancers Sigrid Edvardsson and Christopher Arouni investigated different possibilities of the duet and created movements devoid of organic exits. In the dance Capricorn Domestic they achieved a dynamic expression in which even the breaks appeared to be coherent. The two dancers shared the stage with cellist Emery Cardas.

Music from: J.S Bach from Cello Suite No. 2, Benjamin Britten from Cello Suite No 1
