The Göteborg Ballet
Three symbolic figures of the dance “from the North” have arranged to meet us for an exceptional and original evening dedicated to the Boléro. Three eyes on the same universal work, three choreographers and three musical variations based on the masterpiece by Ravel. In this evening performance by Johan Inger, Kenneth Kvarnström and Alexander Ekman, a young and eccentric choreographer who we have not heard the last of yet, the Boléro is revisited, modified and subjected to the creative vision of the three Swedish choreographers.
Spearheaded by a new artistic director, the company, which has hitherto been classical, shows a particularly successful conversion to contemporary ballet in this programme presented for the first time in France. Driven by a score of dancers with an impeccable technique, this evening performance has many surprises in store for a wider audience. In the first Bolero, Inger finds a perfect balance between choreography and theatre effects, whilst the second by Kvarnström is very abstract and favours pure dance, a perfect counterpoint to the delirious and ludic last Boléro, that by Ekman.
