Composer Kasia Glowicka (Glouu) invites Dutch spoken word artist Sjaan Flikweert and cellist Jan Willem Troost for an evening of spoken word, poetry, and music. “9 Sprouts” (9 Kiemen) is a meditation on future literacy—the gifts we leave for those yet to come: love, presence, memory, and reflection. Through the delicate interplay of poetry and sound, the performance reflects on the moments we sow today that will grow into the legacies of tomorrow. With evocative spoken word and expressive cello, “9 Sprouts” explores how we navigate the fragility of time and the enduring hope we plant for future generations.
