  • Cornucopia (also called Björk's Cornucopia) is the tenth concert tour and first theatrical production by Icelandic singer and songwriter Björk. Debuting as a residency show on eight non consecutive nights at Manhattan's The Shed culture center, it was one of the first shows being performed at the venue, which was inaugurated in April 2019. Concepted upon Björk's ninth studio album, Utopia (2017), it is directed by Argentine film director Lucrecia Martel, and was described as the singer's "most elaborate stage concert yet." The show featured several digital visuals created by media artist Tobias Gremmler, while Chiara Stephenson provided the stage design, which was made to resemble fungi. Onstage, Björk was backed by The Hamrahlid Choir, an Icelandic 50-people choir, which would also open the show. The live band included a 7-piece flute ensemble, a harpist, a percussion section, electronics and also a number of bespoke instruments, which were implemented in the surround sound stage design. Björk requested a reverb chamber to feature onstage, in which she could sing before technical equipments, to mimic the way she usually composes her music. Björk and the band wore dresses by Balmain's Olivier Rousteing and Iris van Herpen. A speech by Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg was projected onstage as an interlude before the encore. The performances were praised by critics, who lauded the singer's performance and the overall production of the show. Tickets for Cornucopia sold out quickly after going on sale. (en)
  • Cornucopia (anche nota come Björk's Cornucopia) è la decima tournée della cantautrice e compositrice islandese Björk. Diretta da Lucrecia Martel, una fra i più notevoli registi latino-americani, Cornucopia ingloba il motivo dell'ultimo album della cantante, Utopia — già portato in tour nel 2018 con l'Utopia Tour —, stavolta in una più ampia prospettiva che include anche tecnologia digitale e performance. Tobias Gremmler è stato il curatore della parte digitale degli spettacoli, inseriti in un ambiente ideato dalla stage designer Chiara Stephenson. Si tratta del primo tour di Björk comprendente l'aspetto tecnologico e teatrale, e la cantante stessa l'ha descritto come il suo «più elaborato concerto scenico di sempre». La prima mondiale di Cornucopia ha avuto luogo il 6 maggio 2019 presso il centro culturale The Shed di Manhattan (specializzato in arti performative e visive), compresa fra gli spettacoli che ne hanno inaugurato l'apertura. Ad essa sono seguite sette repliche fino al 1º giugno 2019, quindi il residency show è andato in tour raggiungendo dapprima Città del Messico per cinque date, fra il 17 e il 30 agosto 2019, poi l'Europa per otto date, fra il 13 novembre e l'8 dicembre 2019. Dopo una pausa a causa della pandemia di COVID-19, la produzione è ripartita nel gennaio 2022, con cinque date nella West Coast statunitense sei date in Australia e Giappone l'anno seguente. (it)
