Performance description
The ballet evening KYLIÁN – Bridges of Time is dedicated to the work of Jiří Kylián, a renowned choreographer born in the Czech Republic who gained international fame.*
The production *Kylián – Bridges of Time* presents on stage the very essence of Kylián’s personality, that which makes the audience hold their breath, quickens their pulse, brings tear to their eyes and compels us to ponder pure beauty and perfect art. Such facets are almost palpable in *Bella Figura* and *Gods and Dogs*, as well as in the “Mozart choreographies” *Petite Mort* and *Six Dances*.
*“I am glad that Jiří Kylián has chosen these choreographies in particular for staging in Prague. I consider them highly sensitive and think that they are among the most remarkable of his creations,” added Filip Barankiewicz, the Artistic Director of the Czech National Ballet.
