| Description |
In a career still only ten years old, Hofesh Shechter's inimitable brand of epic, cinematic and powerfully tribal choreography has become a genre unto itself – a blend of pulverizing rock, skittering folk dance and haunting imagery that has redefined the boundaries of dance. A former drummer and rock musician, Shechter composes the propulsive soundtracks that drive his works, making for a closely bound marriage of sound and movement. |
