Sasha Waltz & Guests
A Production Commemorating the Elbphilharmonie Opening
It is a new year, a new time, a new beginning – and this offers a new freedom. With only days before the official opening of the concert hall, Sasha Waltz and her celebrated dance company invite you to explore the Elbphilharmonie foyers accompanied by choreography and music.
Their performance is based on the chorus work »Figure humaine« (Human Image) by Francis Poulenc. It outlines a fresh start for society – out of the spirit of humanity – and culminates in an Ode to Freedom.
