NATIONAL PREMIERE
Choreographer Jonathan Burrows and composer Matteo Fargion present the final part of a trilogy of performances, which began in 2002 with ‘Both Sitting Duet’ and continued in 2005 with ‘The Quiet Dance’. This new piece continues their gentle exploration into how the relationship between music and dance is perceived, and the fragile but permeable boundaries between the two worlds. Their performances are a formal but humorous meditation on the nature of communication, and the relationship between each other and with the audience.
The trilogy of pieces is now touring internationally, and has been invited across 19 countries so far.
‘Both Sitting Duet’ was the winner of a 2004 New York Dance and Performance “Bessie” Award.
