On the shortest night of the year, daylight fades—and the senses take over.Pornopera is an exciting and unforgettable finale to DAS HAUS Season 4: a concert about what we see, what we feel, and what we dare to desire.Pornopera is a concert stripped to its core: voice and body. Two singers and an electronic musician confront the audience with the physicality of sound. Early music meets the gaze of the present. What happens when music once meant for God enters the realm of arousal? When divine ecstasy pulses through bodies instead of belief? Performed on the shortest night, as daylight fades and the eye releases, the ear takes over. The audience surrounds the performers. The concert becomes an act of listening and exposure. Of desire, discipline, surrender, held in the grip of the minor second.Timo Tembuyser, a vocalist and interdisciplinary artist working at the edge of sound and social architecture. Known for projects like Missa Mater Sola, Timo builds bridges between community, ritual, and contemporary performance, often using voice as a tool for collective experience. On this evening, he is about to confront the sacred roots of his classical training, bending them toward bodily resonance and raw expression.Wijnand Gomes, an emerging opera baritone with a rich, emotionally charged voice and a dark, fearless presence. Wijnand taps into the Baroque’s aching vulnerability and explosive tension. His daring interpretations redefine the possibilities of voice and presence.Natasha Pirard, an electronic musician and sound designer who works with vibration, sensation, and immersive space. Natasha sculpts a listening experience with low frequencies and surround audio techniques, blending analog synthesizers with voice and tape loops. Her creations are felt—pulsing through the floor, body, and skin.Aïda Gabriëls, as stage director she is renowned for her transdisciplinary approach to performance art, and creating raw, sensorially rich experiences. With a background in philosophy and a deep connection to sound, she crafts immersive works that question the politics of perception and physicality.Created and performed by: Timo Tembuyser &amp; Wijnand Gomes Live electronics: Natasha Pirard Concept: Sergio Roberto Gratteri &amp; Aïda Gabriëls Stage Direction: Aïda Gabriëls Dramaturgy: Lena Meyskens Technical direction: Rune Floryn Image: Leo Maki Production: DAS HAUS &amp; oester In co-production with: Needcompany With the support of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Belgium.An unfiltered farewell on the edge of summer.
