#Villanelle

2025-12-02
Mark your calendars — on Saturday 6 December 2025 at 20:00, the composer‑visionary extraordinaire Hans Appelqvist premieres his latest work Une Villanelle.

“Mixing live music with programmed video and lights… follows three characters that try to convey what’s going on inside their inner minds – through words and music.”

https://inkonst.com/event/une-villanelle-by-hans-appelqvist/

🔍 What to expect:
A structure borrowed from the poetic form of the villanelle—a 19‑line poem with refrains—as a framework for sonic and visual exploration.

Appelqvist’s signature: layered electronics, found sound, détourned textures, theatrical tension.

An immersive union of sound, image and space—where form warps and mood shifts under a subtle yet incisive lens.

Who’s this for?
If you’re someone drawn to the edges—sound that unsettles in the best possible way, visuals that speak in half‑glimpses, a space where everyday life collides with abstraction—this is for you.
The 25‑40 crowd, the curious listener, the art‑enthusiast who wants to step outside the club‑routine and into something a little more haunted, a little more alive.

Remember when I challenged myself to write poems about Lavinia in as many poetic forms as possible?

I should make more of these

#poetry #sonnet #villanelle #TitusAndronicus

Lavinia Villanelle

She just regained her words, and yet her
father ran her through and said 
"When I next meet you you'll be better"

Fixed, not victim to who spread her
til she begged they leave her dead
and hidden from both man and heaven.

Arriving from where they had led her
brutalized, her family's dread
all echoed, "hanging would be better

than to be like this" (however,
that they'd prefer to grieve instead
of live with this: she, spared from heaven,

hurt, used for another's pleasure,
but still safe within her bed
astounded); they believed it better

and that the kill was mercy—said her
father to her lifeless head
 "When I next meet you you'll be better"
  (as if he'd be reaching Heaven).Lavinia Modified Villanelle 

As if to tie their child's shoes—
   with equal tenderness and care
—they'll smile as they tie your noose

and call it love; so don't assume
that you, now broken, will be spared
if you insist you still have use

there's nothing left that you can prove
(at least, no trades they'd figure fair)
They've gotten what they want from you

and now that worth you had is ruined,
damaged beyond all repair
(Though you and I both know the truth

that you became expendable as soon
as you were changed but dared
to still exist with no excuse)

and so to graciously reduce
the pain of you still being there
they'll smile as they tie your noose
(and wait for you to thank them, too).Lavinia Sonnet

A dog you couldn't fix so you put down
A choice you made with love—or you believed
You'd save me from the things I'd been around
And resurrect the child that you grieved 

When you sent me to heaven did you guess
You'd see me clothed in feathers, crowned in light
the 'right' version, without what gave you stress
the me that hadn't changed, the one you liked?

How did it feel to peer beyond the gate
And see me laughing on the other side
Retaining all the traits you'd come to hate
Still broken, still an angel glorified?

When you were turned away were you surprised?
(Remind me: which of us was first denied?)

Some #poetry for this very cold, snowy (where I am) Sunday. Remembering warm, sunny months.

#love #mary #doingthings #villanelle

to do
a thing
with you

is to
be seen
to do

a new
old thing
with you.

Our true
calling: 
To do.

By two
outings
with you

I knew
the thing
to do
with you
