Jiri Kylian - Black & White Ballets (2012) Arthaus NEW sealed DVD Region 1 NTSC
Czech choreographer Jiri Kylian is one of the most innovative and
successful ballet masters on the contemporary dance scene. The vitality
of his works is supported by an especially highly developed feeling for
music, making it seem as if the music and the dancers flow from a common
impulse. This series of plotless dance pieces offers six individual
pictures of Kyli+¡n's highly inventive choreographic mind, spanning a
spectrum of styles and moods even while knitting together the constants
of Kylian's work: modern style seen through the lens of classical form,
personal existential questioning on an impersonal stage, and classical
economy married to explosive energy.
