A new interpretation of the German choreographer’s most powerful work
is perhaps German dancer and choreographer Pina Bausch’s most seminal work. An adaption of Russian composer Igor Stravinsky’s 1913 musical-choreographic work of the same name, Bausch’s “harrowing” dance, first debuted in 1975, caused a stir in the dance world.
Exchanging earth for sand, this rehearsal was captured by Florian Heinzen-Ziob, whose resulting film, entitled, is now available to watch via Sadler’s Wells’ Digital Stage for a mere £5. Capturing the company’s incredible performance, the film represents a rare opportunity to see one of the greatest works in the history of dance, from the comfort of your home.
“We are so delighted to be able to bring this unique film to audiences across the world,” says Alistair Spalding, artistic director and chief executive of Sadler’s Wells. “Coronavirus has had a profound impact everywhere, and for us, has sadly resulted in the postponement of much of our work, including/ common ground[s]. Despite this, the company seized the opportunity to capture this powerful, one-of-a-kind moment, which feels very much in harmony with the spirit of Pina Bausch.
