On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of George Gershwin's masterpiece, the National Choreographic Center / Aterballetto has been invited to perform the choreography Rhapsody in Blue by Iratxe Ansa and Igor Bacovich at the New York City Center, as part of the prestigious 'Fall for Dance Festival'.


«Rhapsody in Blue is a fantastic toy for a choreographer, for a creative. Being so powerful, so cheerful, so sparkling, it is characterized by constant variations of form and seems to traverse an enchanted forest: in a few steps, you encounter a magical being, an unreal sky that changes color above you. You move in this fantastic world, where the rhapsody offers a sound space where everything is possible, where new elements constantly peek out from every corner, and you are continuously surprised. Bodies react to agitated and always different inputs. We played with all this, closing our eyes and dreaming of new worlds every time we encountered a new theme. » – Iratxe Ansa & Igor Bacovich
