From 20/01/2020 to 22/01/2020
Presentation :
On 24/01/2020 at 19:00 in Teatro Central (Sevilla)
Mal Pelo
Mal Pelo will begin 2020 by resuming the tour of its latest piece, On Goldberg Variations/Variations, at the Teatro Central de Sevilla.
The piece On Goldberg Variations/Variations is based on the musical work Goldberg Variations/Variations by the French-American pianist and composer Dan Tepfer, in which he performs J.S. Bach’s Goldberg Variations in combination with his own variations improvised on the same harmonies.
On Goldberg Variations/Variations twines together lines of language to make a weaving around the work of J.S. Bach. Dance, the voice of John Berger, texts of their own, the manipulated, multifocal sound of the soundtrack, live voice and video projections combine to create this approach by Mal Pelo to the universe of J.S. Bach.
The choreography is attuned to the particular musicality of each performer and the rhythmic and dynamic dialogue between the group and the space.
After presenting María Muñoz’ Bach all over the world, this piece is the second part of the BACH PROJECT, a trilogy centred around the study of the music of J.S. Bach in relation to choreographic composition.
