María Muñoz – Mal Pelo “Bach”

Tanz / Theater

depARTures
Unique Performance and Dance from Catalunya

In the depARTures series, JOINT ADVENTURES presents choreographic works in the context of ACCESS TO DANCE and with the support of the Institut Ramon Llull. They create bridges to other art forms and thus expand the possibilities of dance and performance. The first edition of the series in 2018 was given the motto “New Choreographic Strategies in Dutch Dance”; this time, choreographers from Catalonia are placed in the focus. The performances are flanked by an homage to the Catalonia film director Núria Font Solà (1958-2017); it is curated by Àngels Margarit, the director of the Barcelona dance house Mercat de les Flors.
Artist talks after the performances round out the evenings.

8 pm María Muñoz – Mal Pelo “Bach”

In Bach the discourse is articulated through the body and the music of Bach.
This piece is the start of a much longer work. An approach to the Well-Tempered Clavier by J.S. Bach, in which Maria Muñoz combines the dance to some preludes which are played live with the memory of some fugues danced in silence. The performer's presence develops within a pure work of movement. Her outstanding solo is a „signature piece“ of catalan dance in the years 2000.
