With a cohesive technical quality and fluidity in their movements, the dancers’ interactions and varying formations give the piece a storytelling quality. The internal struggles are often expressed in quick, rapid, and sharp movements which are executed with precision.
The first lunchtime performance was the premiere of Tender Resistance, a brand new work by Leo Spreksel Award-winning choreographer Faizah Grootens. This is the first work she has made for Korzo as an artist-in-residence. Vulnerability, temperament and fluid movements run as common threads through her work.
Since 1986 the competition has earned a reputation as one of the world’s premier piano competitions. Each edition highlights Liszt’s compositions and his connections to other composers.

At a ceremony outside the Museum’s main door in the St. Agathaplein, Janelle Moerman, director of Museum Prinsenhof, and Marja van Bijsterveldt, mayor of Delft, symbolically closed the shutters of the museum, after which the mayor received the key from the director so work could start. Most of the work will involve the entrances and reception areas as well as the remodelling of the outside spaces.

All this and more in the fourth edition of ArtsTalk International . . .
