The consolidation made the Staatsballett the biggest classically trained company in Germany with 92 dancers. Performance venues are the stages of the Deutsche Oper Berlin, the Komische Oper Berlin and the Staatsoper Unter den Linden. In addition to these regular locations, the company also takes up opportunities to dance at other venues in the city. Since 2011, the Staatsballett Berlin has been based at the Deutsche Oper Berlin. The opera house’s former paint workshops have now become modern ballet studios that offer excellent working conditions. Under the artistic direction of its founding director, Vladimir Malakhov, the company has become a successful and acknowledged part of Berlin’s culture. After 10 years of directing the company, Vladimir Malakhov passed the direction to Nacho Duato who broadened the repertoire with classical and contemporary choreographies while focusing on neoclassical works. With the 2018/2019 season, Johannes Öhman took over as Director of the Staatsballett Berlin and was joined by Sasha Waltz from 2019/2020 onwards in a Co-directorship. The focus of their artistic curation is to introduce and create new original works for the company as well as display the rich heritage of dance from its beginnings to the present day. SASHA WALTZ ARTISTIC DIRECTOR OF THE STAATSBALLETT BERLIN Sasha Waltz is a choreographer, dancer and director. After her first studies at the School of New Dance Development in Amsterdam, she joined the postmodern oriented New York City dance scene that worked in close exchange with the other arts. In 1986 and 1987 she danced in the New York based companies of Pooh Kaye, Yoshiko Chumo & School of Hard Knocks and Lisa Kraus & Dancers. Driven by the spirit of that scene, she developed the improvisational format DIALOGE in the early 1990s in Berlin. She chose the young German capital as the center of her activities where she practiced new choreographic approaches in self-developed infrastructures. Together with Jochen Sandig she founded the dance company Sasha Waltz & Guests in 1993 and in 1996 the Sophiensaele as a venue for dance and more, nowadays a centre of the independent dance and theatre scene not only in Germany. From 2000 until 2005 she was one of the directors of the Schaubühne at Lehniner Platz. During this first decade in Berlin, she created internationally renown and influencial dance pieces such as the trilogies TRAVELOGUE and KÖRPER as well as the immersive dance installation INSIDEOUT. In the following years she applied the language and strategies of contemporary dance to vitalize and explore historical and new operas and ballets. With DIDO & AENEAS (2005), MEDEA (2007) and MATSUKAZE (2011) she realized three pieces about women and at the same time established the genre of the choreographic opera. In 2007 she directed ROMÉO ET JULIETTE, interpreting the dramatic symphony of Hector Berlioz, for the Opéra National de Paris. From this followed SACRE in 2013 set to the music of Igor Strawinsky commissioned by the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, and in 2014 TANNHÄUSER at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden conducted by Daniel Barenboim. Simultaneously Sasha Waltz has been pursuing the sharing and teaching of dance knowledge and promoting dance as a medium of social and sociopolitical communication. As part of this endeavor, she founded the Berlin based Kindertanzcompany (Children's Dance Company) in 2007 and, following an invitation from the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, developed a choreography with over 100 pupils to dance Schtschedrin's CARMEN-SUITE. In 2016 she founded the event format ZUHÖREN with which she opened a »third space« for art and politics. She expanded the DIALOGE-concept to incorporate danced responses to architecture wherein the audience is invited to act as an equal part of the choreographic happening. Examples of this are DIALOGE 09 performed in the still vacant interior of the Neues Museum in Berlin after the renovation by David Chipperfield (2009) and the choreographic installation FIGURE HUMAINE for the inauguration of the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie (2017). In her present choreographic work, Waltz is focusing on the intensification of collaborative processes, such as the synchronic development of choreography and music. In collaboration with Soundwalk Collective and the costume designer Iris van Herpen (among others), she created the choreography KREATUR (2017) followed by EXODUS (August 2018), both premiered at Radialsystem V in Berlin. In 2019 she choreographed her latest work »rauschen« for the Volksbühne Berlin. In parallel with the artistic direction of her dance company for which she creates pieces on a regular basis, Sasha Waltz is Artistic Director of the Staatsballett Berlin since 2019/2020 together with co-director Johannes Öhman and will present her creation SYM-PHONIE 2020 in April 2020. For her special services Sasha Waltz was granted the German Federal Cross of Merit. Since 2013 she is a member of the Academy of Arts Berlin. JOHANNES ÖHMAN ARTISTIC DIRECTOR OF THE STAATSBALLETT BERLIN Born in Stockholm, Sweden, Sven Johannes Öhman studied at the Kungliga Svenska Balettskolan (Royal Swedish Ballet School) in Stockholm and in Paris. In 1987 he was hired by the Royal Swedish Ballet and appointed soloist in 1991. Between 1986 and 1988 he also worked as a soloist at the Basel Ballet in Switzerland.

  • O Brasil Descobre a Dança Descobre O Brasil
    O TALHO NA CMESMIE Os milênios pertencem a ordenações soberanas. Conversas de fim de século geralmente tratam de momentos críticos e decisões irrevogáveis. As de agora, sopram prováveis e variados holocaustos, mas também diversas possibilidades de redenção. Clamam por urgências ecológicas, pela atenção com a saúde pessoal e do planeta; redimensionam questões nacionais, uma vez que as novas tecnologias de informação estão desenhando um mundo por conhecer. Qual o figurino indicado para uma troca de milênio? O motor do ato, aqui, se impele dos traços nascidos nos últimos anos deste 1900, mas não marcha nas hostes milenaristas (como se comportar perante os três zeros das datas que serão cabeçalhos de nossa futura correspondência? Zero-pai, zero-filho, zero-espírito santo, como diz Peter Sloterdijk?). Nem se abriga nas dobras amigáveis de uma historiografia oficial, cronológica na sua seqüência linear. Primeiro, porque ela não está sequer escrita. E depois, singrar outras faces em paisagens conhecidas é o que abre o breu. Na ausência de pernas, cavalgaremos com a ciência. Ciência: do que se desprende o nosso cotidiano. Às vezes, nem atentamos para sua presença. Distraídos, continuamos pensando que se trata de exclusividade de laboratório de cientista. Mas não. Escolher uma hipótese (por que uma, aquela, e não qualquer outra?), testá-la indutivamente e, em seguida, elaborar uma dedução a respeito das conclusões obtidas é o que cada um de nós faz a cada dia quando, por exemplo, abre a janela e escolhe com que roupa vai sair de casa. O ponto de partida, a idéia básica do trabalho, se centra num fenômeno tipicamente brasileiro conhecido por Ballet Stagium.

Beethoven and ballet, it was said for a long time, are a bad fit. The choreographers Mauro Bigonzetti and Hans van Manen prove the opposite with their highly individual works set to the music of this acclaimed genius. There are statements which develop a life Olympus of Viennese classical music, Haydn of their own. Such is the case with this sen- and Mozart – rejected appointments at prin- tence by the great choreographer George cely courts in order to be free and subjective Balanchine: “Dance should leave Beethoven in his art. The consummate, ultimate artist well alone – there’s no choreographing to to whom nothing need be added – not even his music.” It would seem that these words the dance.

  • The 2017/18 Season: 70 Years of the Komische Oper Berlin – 70 Years Of
    Press release | 30/3/2017 | acr | Updated: July 2017 The 2017/18 Season: 70 Years of the Komische Oper Berlin – 70 Years of the Future of Opera 10 premieres for this major birthday, two of which are reencounters with titles of legendary Felsenstein productions, two are world premieres and four are operatic milestones of the 20 th century. 70 years ago, Walter Felsenstein founded the Komische Oper as a place where musical theatre makers were not content to rest on the laurels of opera’s rich traditions, but continually questioned it in terms of its relevance and sustainability. In our 2017/18 anniversary season, together with their team, our Intendant and Chefregisseur Barrie Kosky and the Managing Director Susanne Moser are putting this aim into practice once again by way of a diverse program – with special highlights to celebrate our 70 th birthday. From Baroque opera to operettas and musicals, the musical milestones of 20 th century operatic works, right through to new premieres of operas for children, with works by Georg Friedrich Handel through to Philip Glass, from Jacques Offenbach to Jerry Bock, from Claude Debussy to Dmitri Shostakovich, staged both by some of the most distinguished directors of our time as well as directorial newcomers. New Productions Our 70 th birthday will be celebrated not just with a huge birthday cake on 3 December, but also with two anniversary productions. Two works which enjoyed great success as legendary Felsenstein productions are returning in new productions. Barrie Kosky is staging Jerry Brock’s musical Fiddler on the Roof , with Max Hopp/Markus John and Dagmar Manzel in the lead roles, and the magician of the theatre, Stefan Herheim, will present Jacques Offenbach’s operetta Barbe- bleue in a new, German and French version.

  • A Study on the Gender Imbalance Among Professional Choreographers Working in the Fields of Classical Ballet and Contemporary Dance
    Where are the female choreographers? A study on the gender imbalance among professional choreographers working in the fields of classical ballet and contemporary dance. Jessica Teague August 2016 This Dissertation is submitted to City University as part of the requirements for the award of MA Culture, Policy and Management 1 Abstract The dissertation investigates the lack of women working as professional choreographers in both the UK and the wider international dance sector. Although dance as an art form within western cultures is often perceived as ‘the art of women,’ it is predominately men who are conceptualising the works and choreographing the movement. This study focuses on understanding the phenomenon that leads female choreographers to be less likely to produce works for leading dance companies and venues than their male counterparts. The research investigates the current scope of the gender imbalance in the professional choreographic field, the reasons for the imbalance and provides theories as to why the imbalance is more pronounced in the classical ballet sector compared to the contemporary dance field. The research draws together experiences and statistical evidence from two significant branches of the artistic process; the choreographers involved in creating dance and the Gatekeepers and organisations that commission them. Key issues surrounding the problem are identified and assessed through qualitative data drawn from interviews with nine professional female choreographers. A statistical analysis of the repertoire choices of 32 leading international dance companies quantifies and compares the severity of the gender imbalance at the highest professional level. The data indicates that the scope of the phenomenon affects not only the UK but also the majority of the Western world.
