48 Hours | The Complaints Choir
1st August to 1st September 2013, daily 10am-6pm.
169 Rose Street, Edinburgh EH2 4HQ
Conceived by Finnish artists, Tellervo Kalleinen and Oliver Kochta Kalleinen, as a literal expression of the Finnish phrase Valituskuoro; a chorus of complaints. The Complaints Choir invites people to come together to share their complaints, and sing them out loud.
The project begins with an open invitation to inhabitants of a city, to join a choir, submit their complaints, and then participate in a series of workshops led by a composer. The composer then works with the choir to compose a new song for live performance.
