Partita
Partita
A flute-playing gardener, a choreographer and dancer meet in Johann Sebastian Bach’s music.
Partita is a danced concert where a modern dance expression is set against Bach’s sound world and style dances such as Courante, Bourée and Sarabande in a musical 18th century costume. Conversely, the movement inspires and influences the music and the baroque style. Two worlds are woven together and also interact with text.
Choreography | Dance: Susanne Svantesson
Flute: Lasse Pettersson
Music: Johann Sebastian Bach – Partita for solo flute DWV 1013
Duration about 25 minutes.
Partita has support from the Swedish Arts Council, Region Gotland and Dance on Gotland.
