GDEO No definitive English equivalent exists for the Korean expression "gdeo, gdeo" (which could also be written "kureyo" or "gûreyoo"). On one level it stresses the speaker's agreement: "As you say", "All right" or "Yes, I agree" rendering the expression in a literal sense. However, with a slightly different intonation, the apparent affirmative is frequently used to mask a doubt. Hence "gdeo" serves everyday diplomacy in Korea in that, in agreeing, one signals that one has in reality a completely different opinion. This area of conflict between affirmation and negation, between agreement and rejection forms the basis of this Swiss-Korean dance theatre. The musician Hans Koch and Philippe Olza are falling back on the experiences from their first cooperation for the piece "VOILÀ!". In Koch's studio in Biel, they are establishing a dialogical composition process. Elements of Korean and European music are the basis for Koch's composition. The composer uses both musical traditions and alienates them with the aim of creating a poetic musical space of its own. In parts, the music reflects the contrary and chaotic conditions of intercultural encounters. With the same approach, the choreography leads to a cultural exchange.
