Abstract

Translation of the Yellow Sound, a play of Wassily Kandinsky. Kandinsky's Yellow Sound presents human and non-human figures arranged in multisensory games between sound, movement and light. There is no plot, no basic narrative: the events are presented at the limits of their comprehension, in independent scenes that alternate pantomimes, songs, instrumental sections, and recitation of poetic lines.
