Typhoon | Introdans & Krisztina de Châtel

Monumental showdown in minimalist dance!

Introdans is revisiting the monumental dance performance Typhoon (1986) by choreographer Krisztina De Châtel. In this performance, De Châtel's choreographic ordering urge is tested, as it were, in a flying storm. A windless prologue is accompanied by rippling piano sounds of Simeon ten Holt's Canto Ostinato. Then the swelling roar of wind machines drowns out the gentle piano sounds. The dancers are ready for battle, filling up their lungs and proudly and proudly fighting this (invisible) matter that they make tangible while dancing. Choreographer Krisztina de Châtel manages to captivate again and again with her unique, energetic dance full of minimalist and mathematical movements.
