Madeleine Fournier & ODETTA
Branle
The starting-point of this creation is the bourree with two counts, a traditional group dance from the French Massif Central. Branle takes on the form of a ball – a space in which dance and music come together but that also evokes specific feelings and makes for circulation.
Choreographer Madeleine Fournier is fascinated by the endless repetition in the music and choreography of the bourree. It evokes both a feeling of standstill and transformation, as if the present continuously renews itself in an effort to approach eternity. Accompanied by dancers and musicians Fournier brings you into a trance – the situation in which what is hidden is revealed. Branle descends to the gestures and affects from our collective subconsciousness.
