Description

Opening oneself to the Christmas mystery through dance. Letting oneself be inspired by the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Surrendering to the choreography of the dances. Allowing one's own movements to emerge. Listening into the mysterious world of Bach's symbolism and his vivid sound language. Letting oneself move and be moved. Wilma Vesseur's dance forms for the Christmas Oratorio by J. S. Bach have opened a completely new access to this music. For many people in Europe, it has become a valuable ritual during the Christmas season to feel the Christmas mystery through music with the body and heart.
