About the event

“…seamless marriage of music, balletic tumbling and mind-blowing balancing acts” – The Daily Telegraph

 

Dive into an extraordinary multi-artform experience where the meticulous intellect of Johann Sebastian Bach’s The Art of Fugue meets the breath-taking physicality of contemporary acrobatics. This work is a celebration of human potential, pushing the limits of both mind and body. The complex structure and intellectual depth of Bach’s The Art of Fugue is brought to life by Pianist Vitaly Starikov (2025 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition Silver Medalist), while Circa’s ensemble, led by Artistic Director Yaron Lifschitz, respond with dynamic choreography that defies gravity and captivates the senses. Be there and witness Bach’s musical genius combined with the daring artistry of acrobatics in a performance that embodies the ultimate in human endeavor as we explore the boundless possibilities of artistic creation. Experience the heights of musical and physical prowess.
