Erään rakkauden historia is a duet based on movement and rhythm by the artist couple choreographer Hanna Pajala-Assefa and musician Abdissa “Mamba” Assefa.
The encounter between two people, along with their wills, emotions and pulses, gives rise to polyphonic music – a rhythmic microcosm which functions under laws defined by listening, trust and surrender.
The uniqueness of this performance based on a timeless theme is in the way that renowned professionals of percussion and rhythm in motion challenge each other in the fundamentals of their own fields of art.
