Elissa Blake on Emmanuel Gat ("Make the first move")
Gat asked each dancer to create a 15-second phrase of movement. Then he asked the other dancers to translate it. "Like translating French into English. It has the same meaning but it is a completely different language," Gat says. "If you have very good dancers, like these here, with an artistic weight, you get a very good result.
"I don't interfere at all. Then, later, I will shape it and give it a choreographic vision."
"I've got to a point where all of the movement is generated by the dancers, so I can turn my attention to the music," he says. "It's really interesting for me to see how similar the logic and the tools are between music and dance.
