Part of:

Beethoven 7

Sasha Waltz & Guests

At the heart of the two-part evening "Beethoven 7" lies the question of how personal freedom and social constraints relate to one another.

Together with 14 dancers, Sasha Waltz explores Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Symphony No. 7 in A major (Op. 92)”. This distinctive music resonates with questions of his time that still matter to us today: the failure of a revolution, the (forced) return to old traditions, the tension between the desire for social transformation and restoration, and the accompanying loss of freedom and prospects for the future. Accompanied by the live electronic sounds of Chilean composer Diego Noguera, entitled “Freedom/Ecstasy”, which were created during the creative process, Sasha Waltz takes up these themes in the first part of the evening and reinterprets them from a contemporary perspective.

We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the first part of "Beethoven 7" contains a high noise level. Furthermore, bass tones in the low-frequency range may cause vibrations that can be felt physically.
