Mixed Programme: Shadows/Shift
Christopher Bruce has created SHADOWS especially for Phoenix Dance Theatre. Of this work he says, "To me, many of Arvo Part's compositions evoke images of a European history and tradition steeped in over a thousand years of human experience and, frequently, suffering. These themes, and particularly the turbulence of twentieth century events, have influenced my reaction to his work Fratres". The programme also includes a restaging of his energetic study of life in the 1940s, SHIFT, performed to the last movement of Swing Shift by Kenji Bunch.
