The Goldberg Variations
Platform K / Michiel Vandevelde
this event is part of
Bach Academie Brugge 2021
The connecting power of Bach and movement
Steve Paxton, the figurehead of an inclusive dance form, once created an iconic solo to Bach's Goldberg Variations. Choreographer Michiel Vandevelde invited a mentally challenged dancer, a ballerina and accordionist Vincent van Amsterdam to give this classic masterpiece some new colour for our Bach Academy.
