In 'Resonance', 20Hertz shows that music is much more than sound alone. Through rhythm, movement and light, a new language emerges – one that is universal, beyond words and hearing. Visual effects, body language and gestures fuse into a choreography that resonates with both hearing and deaf audiences.

The performance opens a world where sound ripples through movement, light breathes along with the beat, and silence plays a meaningful role. Young and old are invited to look and listen in new ways. 'Resonance' is a visual spectacle that stimulates the senses and challenges perception.
