»In C« von Sasha Waltz & Guests

Musik von Terry Riley

»St John Passion«

In spring 2024, Sasha Waltz dedicated herself to an outstanding sacred work in music history for the first time with the »St. John Passion« (BWV 245) by Johann Sebastian Bach. To mark the 300th anniversary of its premiere, she staged it in her choreography as a universal, timeless story about the human search for truth, justice and hope, even beyond its religious origins.

Beethoven 7 

Sasha Waltz & Guests

Ludwig van Beethoven 

Diego Noguera

In diesem zweiteiligen Abend widmet sich Sasha Waltz gemeinsam mit einem Ensemble von 13 Tänzer:innen der »Sinfonie Nr. 7 in A-Dur (op. 92)« von Ludwig van Beethoven und kontrastiert dieses klassische Stück mit dem Auftragswerk »Freiheit/Extasis« des zeitgenössischen Komponisten Diego Noguera. Bereits im Juni 2021 hatte die Choreographin im Rahmen des Beethoven-Tags »Mit Beethoven durch Europa« des europäischen Kultursenders ARTE in der antiken Tempelstätte von Delphi eine Choreographie zu zwei Sätzen von Beethovens Siebter geschaffen. Diese Musik ließ sie seitdem nicht mehr los. In ihr schwingen Fragen der Zeit mit, die für uns auch heute noch eine Rolle spielen: das Scheitern einer Revolution, die (erzwungene) Rückkehr zu alten Traditionen, die Reibung zwischen dem Wunsch nach gesellschaftlicher Transformation und Restauration und der damit einhergehende Verlust von Freiheit und Zukunftsperspektiven. Zu den live gespielten elektronischen Klängen von Diego Noguera mit dem Titel »Freiheit/Extasis« greift Sasha Waltz diese Themen zu Beginn des Abends auf und interpretiert sie aus zeitgenössischer Perspektive neu: Wie verhalten sich persönliche Freiheit und gesellschaftliche Zwänge zueinander?

#BerlinIsCulture

It affects us all: the programme of events and projects in the area of education and community are jeopardised by budget cuts.


Last Tuesday, the Berlin Senate announced drastic cuts in the cultural sector that will have far-reaching consequences. Although the culture department only makes up a very small part (2.1%) of the Berlin budget, it is to be disproportionately burdened with a cut of 13% or 130 million euros.

These historically unprecedented cuts will have an exponential effect on the industry and will permanently damage Berlin as a cultural centre. A sector such as dance, which in Berlin has no permanent home and is not institutionally anchored, is particularly affected by these cuts.


Next event of #BerlinIsCulture: Funeral March 

Demonstration from the Neptune Fountain to the Brandenburg Gate

29. November, 3 - 6 pm
