Boléro and Le Sacre du Printemps: Ballet Leipzig

Lo spettacolo

Experience two famous and simultaneously scandalous ballets on the stage of the Oper Leipzig.

Johan Inger's 'Walking Mad' is a homage to Ravel's 'Boléro' which celebrates the sensuality of the human body. The ballet's central theme is the essence of human relationships. 'Le Sacre du Printemps' by Stravinsky demanded too much from the audience at the time of its premier. The movements are fixed on the centre of the body which make them almost sexual. Today the choreography is seen as the beginning of modern dance.
