Originally conceived as a stage premiere in december 2020 at radialsystem, the performers of laborgras together with the ensemble CONTINUUM present their latest production “Das Fest” (“The Celebration“), now as a danceconcertfilm that transcribes selected works by Arcangelo Corelli and George Friedrich Händel into a contemporary audiovisual language. The adapted film version created in collaboration with Walter Bickmann/Tanzforum Berlin, takes up the composers’ festive music and translates it into a choreographic concert: „Das Fest“ combines baroque music and contemporary dance in a joyful quest for new forms of historical performance practices. The choreography reveals itself through unexpected, cinematic perspectives and the audience at home is invited to an evening full of surprising impressions, offering a new bodily form to the early music.
