Pavane
Pavane Concept, Choreography, Performance by Léonard Engel
Music, Performance by Korhan Erel

Léonard Engel transposes animal behaviours such as mimicry and mating rituals onto the human anatomy as the basis for his choreographic practice. He raises the question of the artistic value of animal dances and reconsiders the hierarchy of the species. This piece was premiered on January 13rd at the Tanztage 2019 in Sophiensaele in Berlin. The music was performed live by Korhan Erel on several sound producing and morphing machines.
