Pile

For children 1 to 3 years

A quiet, intense stacker and a nimble ‘knocker-overer’. The stacker sings his blocks up into the air, the knocker-overer drums them down. Pile [Stapel]is a wordless music production about discovery, building and demolition, with blocks and bricks as percussion instruments and a harp as the highest tower. An intuitive game of gravity and a playful journey of discovery full of musical building bricks.
