End ca. 20:30

Together with his partner, the choreographer Merce Cunningham, John Cage wrote »Sixteen Dances« back in 1951. The English-Cypriot choreographer Alexandra Waierstall, known for her intense visuals and her musicality, has now produced a new version for four dancers. The music will be played by the renowned soloists of Ensemble Musikfabrik.

Following the literal meaning of its name, Ensemble Musikfabrik is particularly dedicated to artistic innovation. New, unknown, and often personally commissioned works in an unusual media are typical of their productions. Interdisciplinary projects using live electronics, dance, theatre, film, literature and the fine arts are as much part of their programme as lecture-performances and audience participation concerts. Ever since its formation in 1990, Ensemble Musikfabrik has had the reputation of being one of the leading ensembles for contemporary music.
