A BUDAPEST TÁNCISKOLA ESTJE

One school, three pieces, young dancers – the traditional season finale performance of the Budapest Dance School.
 

FelEmiL
Choreography: MÓRICZ Tamás
Performed by: BORDÁS Emil, BUSA Balázs, CSÁK Beatrix, EMŐDI Lilla, KELEMEN Patrik, PETROVICS Sándor
 

Tamás Móricz spent most of his professional dance career in William Forsythe’s Frankfurt Ballet, but he worked with Jan Fabre, Saburo Teshigawara, Jonathan Burrows, and Amanda Miller. He teaches at some of most distinguished groups (Cullberg, NDT) and schools (P.A.R.T.S.) in Europe, and is a regular improvisation and ballet teacher at the Budapest Dance School. FelEmiL is a partly improvised, partly composed virtuosic piece. “Pure dance” is a rare phenomenon here in Hungary, which builds on the base materials of the dancers and their combinations. Thus its refined, playful language is shaped by the persona of the characters and the nature of movements precisely defined by the choreographer.

TimeStretcheR
Choreography: Eléonore VALÈRE
Performed by: ARANY Virág, BÓDI Alexandra, BORDÁS Emil, BUSA Balázs, CSÁK Beatrix, DOLINSZKY Fanni, FURULYÁS Dóra, FÜLÖP László, HADI Juli, KAPRINYÁK Renáta, KELEMEN Patrik, PETROVICS Sándor
 

After completing P.A.R.T.S., Eléonore Valère worked with Ultima Vez for a brief period and then decided to find her own way. She’s a freelance dancer while abroad and a choreographer with a decisive profile in Hungary. TimeStretcheR – just like On Friskin from 2008 and Skonifrin from 2009 – is a very physical, hard and spirited pieced based around a few clearly defined choreographic elements.
 

RecepTánC
Directed by: ANGELUS Iván
Danced by the current and former dancers of the Budapest Dance School and anyone else who cares to join them
 

RecepTánC is made then and there on the spot – in front of the eyes of the audience and dancers and with their active participation. They both have a chance to see the instructions projected above the stage at the same time: the rules on the plastic, rhythmic and dynamic character of the moments of dance, revealing how these moments are shaped into encounters in the witch’s brewery of dance. Not only is this a new piece, but also somewhat of a new genre that questions and pushes the boundaries of stage and audience, composition and improvisation, work of art and plaything.
