2006 Program - Contemporary Dance with Jochen Heckmann

Jochen Heckmann
Jochen Heckmann

This year the course will be complemented with a special artistic discipline in its entirety: Besides the six to ten dancers, we will be inviting two young choreographers, who already have developed a certain repertoire of works and are looking for new challenging tasks.  They aim to expand their repertoire, acquire new experience and analyze their own work from the outside in a structured manner by means of concrete topics such as space, time, rhythm, dynamics, emotions, objects and music.

This shall give rise to a lively exchange between the training and performing dancers as well as the creating choreographers.

Jochen Heckmann will place the main emphasis on concrete activities and so-called “coaching” with the dancers and, as in previous years, convey dance as a professional “form of art and stage performance.”

The daily course of events is as follows:

09:00 am - 10:15 am Training
10:30 am - 12:00 am Repertoire
3:00 pm - 6:00 pm - Topic afternoons:

  • Contact improvisation
  • Solo, duo, collaboration with other disciplines
  • Open air, in the convent park for example 
  • 2 evenings - theory / video session
