Improvisation is what drives WITH THESE HANDS: every evening, a new dialogue takes place between music and dance. The musicians from Ensemble Modern and the dancers from the Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company inspire each other with creative ideas, developing sounds and movements that are recorded, processed, altered and reintroduced into the flow by Norwegian jazz musician and live electronics artist Jan Bang. The result is a slowly changing stream of movement and music in which sound and dance become inextricably intertwined. For this production, Jacopo Godani uses oversized head sculptures to transform the dancers into epic titans and mythological, alien beings, creating a world with its very own aesthetic.

In recent years, the Dresden Frankfurt Dance Company has cooperated with Ensemble Modern on multiple occasions. This successful partnership is now being taken to a new level through the collaboration with Norwegian jazz musician and live electronics artist Jan Bang.
