Ilmatila/ Clément Dazin Handspun/ Corridor noise 11-12 February 2015

Programme

Welcome to a double performance of juggling, aerial acrobatics and dance!

Air acrobat Ilona Jäntti and composer Luke Styles have created the lyrical and virtuosic Handspun. To the sound of the cello, Sanna Vellava climbs, falls and balances high on the ropes in this elegant and beautiful performance.

"I loved Ilona Jäntti's Handspun, an aerialist performance piece set to a live cello solo. Eschewing the usual death-defying circus turns, Jäntti gave us dreamy lyricism, hanging from her rope like a drowsy spider and slowly circling in a golden light. While clearly born of the steeliest skill, the piece gave an impression of profound detachment and peace. I envied her." /The Observer, UK, 26 February 2012

I Corridor noise choreographer and juggler Clément Dazin offers an intimate reflection on life. At times jerky, at times soft, he mixes contemporary dance with hip-hop and juggling, inviting us into a simple and poetic universe.
