The anthem to joy of Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker in Geneva

It’s rare to want to sing with musicians and dancers. The Six Brandenburg Concertos by Jean-Sébastien Bach, diverted from their majesty by Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker, produces this effect at the Bâtiment des forces motrices in Geneva.

It is rare that we say to a virtuoso troupe, a majority of men and a handful of women in black clothes, dressed first as for a dinner in town, that dance is an elementary art and that it would be enough just to join the movement. For his return to Geneva, at the initiative of the Grand Théâtre and the Association for Contemporary Dance, the Flemish artist with the face of winter madonna gives us this grace: we feel like dancing in his armchair.
