In October the Light Eurythmy group will visit New Zealand. We are very excited to be part of the Annual Conference of the Anthroposophical Society in October. A performance for children and other audiences in Christchurch will follow the conference. Afterwards, we will travel up the country and perform in Nelson/Motueka, Wellington/Kapiti, Hastings, Waikato and Auckland. We are looking forward to many interesting encounters and hope we bring to all audiences, schools, and to the different Hohepa centres, an inspiring eurythmical impulse.
Our programmes will include: Peter and the Wolf, a musical fairytale by Sergei Prokofiev, the fairy-scene from the Midsummer Night’s Dream by William Shakespeare, the Bremen Town Musicians, as well as music by Brahms, Beethoven, Mozart, contemporary composers and inspiring poems. In each venue, we will offer performances for children of different age groups and an evening performance. The programme will be in English. If you are interested to see our work, visit: www.eurythmie.com (for the moment in German).
We are a professional group from Dornach/Arlesheim, Switzerland and perform internationally, presenting programmes in a variety of languages. The Eurythmy impulse that we carry out into the world links closely with the Eurythmy stream at the Goetheanum. The core members of the group have a long experience as stage eurythmists, and in the past held leading positions in the Goetheanum Ensemble.
The Light Eurythmy group works with the lighting impulse of Rudolf Steiner. We carry our own lighting equipment which can be linked to lighting systems at hand. To strengthen the effects of the coloured light, we carry with us plant-dyed curtains.
Following the Christchurch conference, we would like to offer an intensive eurythmy experience on 7 & 8 October, as well as a workshop on the Lighting Impulse of Rudolf Steiner and the development of lighting in general: How does light affect us human beings, what are the different qualities of light (LED light)?
We look forward to sharing an eurythmic experience with you.
