Nicoline Soeter describes her one-hour musical theater performance The Ming Passion as an 'ecological passion story about the relationship between people and the sea'. An exceptionally poetic performance that is hot on the heels of current events. In a directly appealing sound language, Soeter pays a heart-warming tribute to the vulnerability of nature and the frustrating role that humans sometimes play in it. In the music of Nicoline Soeter you hear tonal shadows of old, polyphonic music and American post-minimalism.
