Batsheva Dance Company returns to BAM with the US premiere of Ohad Naharin’s 2009 work Hora. Taking only its name from the popular Israeli folkdance, Hora combines Naharin’s unique dance language with Isao Tomita’s synthesized arrangement of classic works by Strauss, Wagner, and Debussy, among others. Naharin worked individually with each of his dancers to create separate choreographic segments showcasing each of their personalities before bringing the ensemble of 11 dancers together and opening up a creative dialogue between them. These short sequences at times bring a turbulent and chaotic energy to the stage but when combined create a harmonious calm that fills the space, only to be deconstructed again.
