★A message has arrived from Kei Shichiri (film director) regarding his new work!
Shichisato has a deep knowledge of not only movies but also other genres of art.
I always come to BATIK performances as a spectator.
After that, I started to invite Mr. Shichiri for previews of his works and talk about them.
I received a comment for this new work!
...
A lively muse dances the bolero!
Oh, just thinking about it makes me dizzy,
You will be transported to a state of ecstasy.
Kei Shichiri (Film Director)

==============================================
●There is about a month left until the “another BATIK” performance.We asked Akira Kasai, the choreographer, and Ikuyo Kuroda, the BATIK member, about their thoughts on the piece and how they were rehearsing.
(February 09, 2, at the rehearsal hall.)
Akira Kasai BATIK has been active as an all-female company so far, so I think there was a statement in being a woman, even if it wasn't consciously.This was the first time that I, a man, had entered there.By choreographing something different from the physicality, movement, and sensations of women, I want to bring out something new. I have created choreographed works before, but this is my first time choreographing for a company (*).The company has a lot of strength.In the case of dancers gathered through auditions, you have to start by building a relationship, but BATIK as a company has strong ties between dancers, which is very good.The challenge is to make the most of it. I want to make a work that BATIK has cultivated so far will bloom.For those who have seen BATIK so far, I think it's a completely different BATIK, so please take a look.And for those who haven't met yet, I would like you to touch BATIK. *(Mr. Kasai has worked with ballet dancer Ruzimatov, Kuniko Kisanuki and Setsuko Yamada for "nobody Eve" (Theater Tram) in 03, and 06 dancers who auditioned in Germany for "Mirage" (Theater Tram) in 8. choreographed to.) another BATIK document now available Akira Kasai Tenshikan |
Ikuyo Kuroda It's hard to memorize the choreography in practice!But before and after rehearsals, Mr. Kasai talks a lot about the work, so we can get closer to the work and share our thoughts. At BATIK, when I make a new work, I do the same work (dialogue), so I can talk to them and get rid of confusion. One month until the performance, I have to pick up the pace from here.The way Kasai-san is particular about how to use his body is different from BATIK's, so we have to show that part properly. Learning the choreography for Bolero is also difficult, but I enjoy doing it.I never choreograph "Bolero" myself, so this is a precious opportunity (laughs). I'm dancing using the breathing method of "song", but it's difficult to switch the breathing! !Anyway, it's a simple piece to dance to, so I hope you enjoy the dance itself. |
The latest work by the dance company founded in April 02 led by Ikuyo Kuroda.This time, the choreography was commissioned by Akira Kasai, a butoh dancer and expert in eurythmy. “I have no idea how long the BATIK dancers will be able to hold on to their radical movements,” says Kasai, who will keep an eye on how the dancers will react.
