East West - ballet tryptich

Three excellent next generation European choreographers with three distinctive styles created this ballet tryptich which challenges the dancers' ability to quickly transform from one to another dance style, from classical ballet to conteporary dance and back

East West - ballet tryptich

This unusual dance begins in Macedonia, continues in Croatia and ends in France. There can be no East without West, they do not exist without the Centre that binds and separates them. However, frontiers or boundaries cannot be bridged with passports, but with music - an invitation to new dance landscapes. Choreographic units of some 20 to 25 minutes, thematically sustained by the title of this programme, introduce choreographers of new European generation, but also choreographers with three different styles of dance. Choreographic vocabulary of Evtimova, Igor Kirov and Martin Chaix are neoclassical, but, at the same time strongly individualized. They capture your attention by solid dramaturgy and high aestheticism in one moment, only to burst with emotion, dynamism and imagination in the other.
