Dance Consortium – NDT2

In his very personal and moving piece about the fragility of life and love, Goeke’s The Big Crying, with songs by Tori Amos, energises the fiery power of 18 outstanding dancers to embrace a celebration of life. Van Manen’s exquisite quartet, Simple Things, featuring Hayden’s Piano Trio No. 28 in E-major, is described as ‘pure dance art’, presenting a master class in simplicity. For the finale, Johan Inger’s vibrant IMPASSE bursts onto the stage with the joyful music of French-Lebanese jazz trumpeter and composer Ibrahim Maalouf, as he explores the strength of togetherness over isolation in our world today.
