Description |
V is a contemporary dance solo made in a rock'n'roll way that was born in the basements. The movements vary from aggressive and desperate stuggling into nice and sensitive dancing. The piece i set but there is space for a possibility to improvise. the peice lives in the moment and it is not too restrained by tight rules or limitations. The band Sumuisten Vuorten Gorillat plays their song January, which is blue, moody and rough. It is a "modern", partly sang piece. |
