The Open Page Theatre Magazine, 2007<\/em><\/p>\n Natascha Nikeprelevic So I choose singing as a way of life; singing because the voice can do more than only speak; singing in order to transcend language into the vast field of music; singing, because music as a medium is, from the start, universal, abstract, nonsemantic and therefore allows everything and narration becomes possible at many different levels; singing as mediation between speaking and keeping silent.<\/p>\n Ideally I am improvising 100%, and, in the best case scenario \u201cdealing with the unpredictable\u201d brings forth permanently new sounds. Naturally, here and there, acquaintances sneak in and try to turn me away from my rigid concept of improvisation. This tension is very interesting and a permanent challenge! Follow whatever comes. Trust in it as in something that knows more than I do. Sing thinking; think singing. Learn from language insight and apply its laws while singing. Never know what it is that is speaking and who and what about; only react as in a dialogue between meand you. Perceive yourself as someone else; listen to this person and answer. Allow a line that makes all kinds of detours come into being. I could call all of this \u201cthe inner attitude\u201d of my work, the fertile soil that nourishes my singing. Intuition, improvisation and intention merge all through my \u2018song\u2019, provoking and challenging each other, and allowing me sometimes to rediscover \u201cthe song of all things\u201d.<\/p>\n
