Ritual Ⅰ
Torturing the dead (sick)
【AN ABSOLUTE DISASTER】 “Eriko Makimura’s performance last night was an absolute disaster. A disgrace for the world of classical music. She had no respect for her audience in the way she mistreated Beethoven’s masterpiece. She is a self-proclaimed professional pianist whose talent is fading. Makimura does not belong in the music industry and is not worth your time.” – Rasmus Rasmussen – 【史上最悪の公演】 “昨夜の牧村英里子氏の公演は惨憺きわまるものであった。クラシック音楽界の恥の骨頂。偉大なるベートーヴェンの傑作に対する氏の無知な解釈は観客に対して非礼以外の何ものでもない。いわゆる「自称音楽家」の輩であり、その才能とやらは枯渇してしまっている。牧村氏はもはや音楽界に属すに値せず、観客は彼女の演奏を聴くことに時間を割くべきではない” – ラスムス・ラスムセン –

Enough is enough. The pianist was here and she was overthrown by an overdose of sloth. The pianist will be reincarnated next year from the womb of another deadly sin.
A sincere thanks to the William Demant / Oticon Foundation for sponsoring this years concert performance: DOVENSKAB/SLOTH/怠惰.

– ERIKO’S FAN FAINTED OF EXCITEMENT –
エリコのファン、熱狂のあまり失神
(Illustration: amazingly talented Mathilde Thorup)
(English Text by Sofia Ivarsson 🙏) The third week of November is almost here. Isn’t that the best time of the year to indulge in endless laziness? At least- that must be a perfect reason to drag your most lazy selves out to see Eriko Makimura & Co perform, perceive and pursue the deadly sin we named SLOTH. The fundamental question is whether laziness still serves a purpose as a deadly sin, or if it rather has become a survival mechanism, that we all desperately need in order to go on living. The pianist is a sad case, since giving in to laziness would mean the end of her career. So we wonder, could we create a new world order, where SLOTH no longer equals death, where even the world famous pianist from Japan could enjoy a few moments of laziness without guilt? Come and see by yourselves! Get your tickets here: https://billetto.dk/e/koncertperformance-dovenskab-de-syv-dodssynder-billetter-387548 (日本語) 【怠惰】…。ピアニストにとって、怠惰に流れることは「キャリアの死」を意味します。或るひとりのピアニストの心が社会的抑圧のなか次第に脆弱になったゆえ、そこから怠惰・無気力・無関心が引き起こされ、社会生活との断絶、生命の瓦解、精神の崩壊が始まる。しかしその先にある小さな灯明を求めて、彼女は立ち上がろうと足掻きます。渾身のチームワークで創り上げた時にシリアス、時に絶望的、時にファンキー、時にサイケデリックな公演、ぜひご覧下さいませ。舞台にてお待ちしております💋。

Eriko Makimura fabulerer over dødssynden DOVENSKAB’s yderste og inderste aspekter, hvor og hvorfor den eksisterer og over hvorvidt dovenskaben som dødssynd overhovedet har sin eksistensberettigelse i det senmoderne samfund. Er dovenskaben resultat af, eller roden til det evigt scrollende smartphone-livet, vi som kritiske individer er en del af? Vær med når Eriko Makimura endnu en gang skaber en eksplosiv, poetisk, reflekterende og visuelt sansende koncertperformance i KoncertKirken på Nørrebro i 3. uge af november 2019.

Eriko Makimura speculates upon the deadly sin SLOTH, questioning its inner and outer aspects, where and why it exists, and whether it still can be considered a deadly sin in the late modern society of today. Is sloth the effect or the cause of the constantly scrolling smartphone-biased existence that we as critical individuals are leading?
