Violinist Robert Brown plays the world-famous Partita in D minor for solo violin by Johann Sebastian Bach – accompanied by the Balinese dancer and choreographer Nyoman Sura, known from Garin Nugroho´s Opera Jawa. The Goethe-Institut Jakarta presents the world-premiere of the dance/music performance “Bach in Bali” on
Friday, 29th of August, 8 pm
GoetheHaus, Jalan Sam Ratulangi 9-14, Menteng, Jakarta Pusat
The idea for “Bach in Bali” was born, when Robert Brown was warming up before a rehearsal for the Bali Arts Festival. While playing Bach, a student from Denpasar who was helping with the lights, spontaneously began dancing to his music. Robert Brown presented the idea to Nyoman Sura whose work he admires. Robert Brown: “I thought that putting together Sura with great music would foster great art. I also thought this would help make Bach´s music more accessible.”
