SURROGATE CITIES (Excerpts) Heiner Goebbels | Demis Volpi - Ballett am Rhein

Surrogate Cities is the latest creation by Demis Volpi, ballet director and chief choreographer of Ballett am Rhein. Set to Heiner Goebbels's visceral and hypnotic composition of the same name, Volpi has set out to create an evening-length abstract ballet, inspired by the multicoloured sound world of Goebbels. In the days before 29 April 2024, Ballett am Rhein have recorded specially this excerpt for OperaVision’s International Dance Day celebrations. Be prepared for something new, abstract and urban, echoing the metropolis as a space of extreme contradictions.
