Batsheva Dance Company
MOMO
Among the world's most exciting makers of contemporary dance, Ohad Naharin brings his powerhouse company to Berkeley for the Bay Area premiere of a daring new work. In the company's words, "MOMO has two souls. One sends long roots to the depths of the earth--a soul that embodies archetypes and myths of hardened, raw masculinity, and the other is in a constant search for an individual and distinct DNA; one moves within its own autonomous and independent force field and the other is a constellation of elements that spin around the same nucleus--alternately drifting away and towards it, making room for necessary tenderness and catharsis." Recordings of Laurie Anderson and Kronos Quartet's Landfall and Philip Glass' Metamorphosis: Two provide the slow simmering musical backdrop, alongside a song/prayer by Venezuelan musician Arca.
