BOLERO X

“Bolero X” is a large-scale production of modern dance choreographed by the Israeli artist Shahar Binyamini. This is a reinterpretation of the iconic “Bolero” by Maurice Ravel, in which the hypnotic rhythm and the gradual crescendo are transformed into a powerful bodily ritual.

 

Through the medium of repetition and collective movement, approximately 50 dancers explore the concept of group energy, the unity and interaction of the individual with the common whole. The choreography mirrors the musical structure of the piece, evoking a sense of continuous breathing and increasing tension.

 

The “X” in the title has been interpreted as a symbol of multiplication or crossing points – where past and present, individual and collective, music and movement intersect.
