Choreography by Robert Binet
with music by contemporary composers after Johann Strauss
Dances for the Future brings together the Vienna State Opera’s Junior Company with young artistic voices in a new ballet by Canadian choreographer Robert Binet. Writers and thinkers from around the world will create four different scenarios of what our future might look like in 2225, 400 years after the birth of Johann Strauss – visions for which four composers will write new dance music. Echoes and reflections of Strauss’ compositions will be heard and felt as we dream of a future where dance is a powerful force.
