THREE STRAVINSKY

Seoul Arts Center, CJ Towol Theater

Nov. 30-Dec.2


The Korea National Contemporary Dance Company is staging a performance using music by Igor Stravinsky. Three of the composer’s most well-known works - “Agon,” “The Rite of Spring” and “Symphony in C” - will provide the soundtrack to pieces choreographed by Kim Jae-duk, Ahn Sung-soo and Jung Young-doo. Kim has “maintained the significance of “Agon,” while realizing the harmony between music and choreography and remaining true to his philosophy of emphasizing movement over narrative structure,” according to the company.

Jung choreographed a piece to “Symphony in C.” He focused on creating a performance where music and dance can be appreciated in unison. The dancers will create a unique landscape of movements, while the audience can imagine a landscape of their own.

The company’s artistic director Ahn worked on a piece to go with “The Rite of Spring.” The company said that Ahn will be emphasizing musical sensibility and interpretation while highlighting the contrast between the delicate expression of femininity and the dynamic energy of masculinity.

The performance starts at 8 p.m. on Friday, and at 3 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

Ticket prices range from 20,000 to 50,000 won.
