Dancer

The Geneva Camerata presents a unique encounter between the world of Krump – a Hip-Hop dance style originating in the Los Angeles suburbs – and one of the greatest masterworks in music history, Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony. The orchestra musicians become part of the choreography developed by the director and choreographer Kader Attou for this impressive score. Based on the rhythmic intensity of Shostakovich’s Fifth and the virtuosity of the four dancers, the performance stages the body movements of Krump as an expression of self-liberation, symbolizing revolt and the struggle against brutality. The result is a moving total work of art, inviting the viewer to reflect intensively upon various topical social issues such as tolerance, courage and liberty, but from a new perspective.
