The Perelada Festival commemorates the tenth anniversary of the Summer Campus with Niu, a new creation by Aleix Martínez that is born from the bond between the territory and the people who inhabit it. Conceived as a work process with young dancers and musicians in training, the show puts these performers in touch with artists with an international career, generating a space where they can listen, try and start to find their own voice.

Festival Perelada - Festival de Música

The Junior Ballet's new program is being created in close collaboration with the Kunsthaus Zürich and the Kunstmuseum Winterthur. Following the great success of "The Butterfly Effect," a collaboration with climate scientists from ETH Zurich, ballet director Cathy Marston is particularly keen to engage in creative exchange with other renowned institutions in the city and canton of Zurich. The two museums, with their inexhaustible wealth of art treasures from various eras, will serve as a meeting place for the two choreographers and the 14 dancers of the Junior Ballet. Through joint visits to the respective exhibition spaces and discussions with art experts from both institutions, they will gain inspiration for two new choreographies. Aleix Martínez, from Barcelona and principal dancer with the Hamburg Ballet, and Houston Thomas, American and a soloist with the Dresden Semperoper Ballet until 2023, are at the beginning of promising choreographic careers.
