Hardcore
Performance by Tian Rotteveel
In the frame of 8th Tanznacht Berlin 2014
Hardcore is an enigmatic performance site, where movement and sound processes are built. The performers create an evening stretching out states such as ‘just-before-talking’ and ‘just-before-singing’, finding ways to create dream languages.Hardcore develops into a concert that opens space for parallel realities to emerge.
Concept: Tian Rotteveel in close collaboration with Claire Vivianne and Antonion Onio. Performance and choreography: Antonio Onio, Tian Rotteveel, Claire Vivianne Sobottke. Special thanks to:Sandra Noeth, Lito Walkley, Florian Feigl, Karol Tyminsky, Anna Mutler and Alexandra Tveit.Supported by the HZT Berlin

Tian has been working with MAE- Chamber Ensemble, Rosa Ensemble, David Hernandez, Igor Dobricic, Diego Gil, Lea Martini, David Zambrano, Jeremy Wade, Tino Sehgal, Michael Schumacher, Liat Waysbort, and others.
