Dance of the Sun
About the concert
Hypnotic blend of genres Geneva Camerata's critically acclaimed performance pushes the boundaries of what classical music can be. Thirty musicians and two dancers All music is movement – that is the basic idea behind Geneva Camerata's Dance of the Sun, a unique concert performance that unites music and dance in an ode to life, hope, loss and love. Thirty musicians from Geneva Camerata are on stage together with two dancers, one of whom is the choreographer himself, Juan Kruz Díaz de Garaio Esnaola. The musicians dance Esnaola's choreography while playing Mozart, Lully and the commissioned work Rise by Barblina Meierhaus from memory. The result is a genre-crossing mix of music, dance and theatre that challenges the way we listen. Programme Barblina Meierhans: Rise, commissioned work for Geneva Camerata Jean-Baptiste Lully: Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, orchestral suite Interval Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Symphony No. 40 in G minor
