ROMANTIC, SHAMANIC, FRENETIC HIP-HOP: THE SURPRISING DANCE OF THE YOUNG SLOVENIAN SCENE.
Night, community—Chorus invites us to follow a nocturnal rite for six dancers and one musician, joined by a group of locally recruited young hip-hop dancers, a chorus of bodies to examine what makes us human. In this choreographic debate, the exchange of ideas takes place with great gestural freedom, exploring multiple ways of merging minds. Accompanied on drums and cello by Kristijan Krajnčan, the dancer-citizens bring to life chiaroscuros in the style of Caravaggio and images of animal-like ecstasy, before evoking a frenetic hip-hop battle that borders on the grotesque. All this seems completely natural, since Gašper Kunšek came to dance from football, yoga, and shamanic dances, while Žigan Krajnčan was trained as a singer and violinist, then became one of the figureheads of Slovenian hip-hop at the age of twenty.
