Dance & ballet
Undertainment + Playing with Sergei, Martha and the others
About
What to expect
William Forsythe, former director of the Frankfurt Ballet, works here again with the company he knows well. In Undertainment the dancers move within a precise spatial pattern that keeps changing shape.
Improvisation techniques bring out motifs that keep changing, which gives the choreography surprising and unpredictable turns.
Thomas Hauert enters into a playful dialogue with Rachmaninov's third piano concerto, in a version performed by Martha Argerich.
The dance grows out of collective listening and intentions that are adjusted in the moment, carried by the impulses and turns of the musical score.
- Two choreographers in one shared programme
