Arythmie

Arrhythmia ( 2008) - Contemporary Music

Music: No music (in silence)

Duration: 15 min
Abstract dance piece that addresses the issue the musical body . It gives read and hear the music of the body. Any choreography rests as the scores written and carried by the dancers. It is danced in silence and can be accompanied by live music . It takes a mastery of the inner pulsation of listening to self and others , a sense of phrasing choreographic and rhythmic .
