Bel­gian Première

Meet the artists after the show on 30.08

Not unlike the xylophone, a txalaparta is a Basque musi- cal instrument that resonates when struck, but over which no-one has complete control : its nature defies all anchorage.

The txalaparta, which is present on stage, becomes a metaphor for the transformation of perceptions caused by the unbridled and paradoxically highly composed movements of the performers. Rhythm fills the air, with exchanges of power and matter, swirls, voices, soaring...

The compagny Kukai Dantza draws on traditional Basque dance and invites guest choreographers (in this case Jesús Rubio Gamo) to produce singular universes exploring the popular roots of dance and its most contemporary expression.
