A poem for the world – NDT 2

A poem for the world - NDT 2

Dans & ballet

No Dutch Required

The second NDT 2 programme of this season celebrates the playfulness and humanity of our dancers. Edward Clug takes us into mutual comfort (2015), in which dancers explore their connection with one another amid live music by Milko Lazar. Subtle humour, unexpected beauty and detailed movement reveal the essence of Clug’s dance universe in just ten minutes.

From her poetic work Kunstkamer, Crystal Pite developed the quartet Four Solitudes (2019), in which love and loneliness meet. Inspired by Rilke and accompanied by Schubert’s piano music played live, Pite explores how individual solitude and togetherness can strengthen each other, resulting in a virtuoso and moving dance experience.

Finally, Johan Inger presents a world premiere, a new work created with the NDT 2 dancers. Focusing on musicality, human relationships and emotional presence, the piece shows how listening, exchanging and dancing together can shape movements that reveal who we are right now.

  • With a free introductory talk before the show at 19.15
