Hi there,
"NOOR" "is a work for six dancers and musicians created by Tamar Borer and Tom Klein. "NOOR" is a journey of spreading from shells, and a search for the initial breath, of the beginning of movement and sound.
The show opens with a surrealistic spectacle of hybrid creatures moving over a black and gaping abyss. Music emanates from an explosion that leaves behind a thin horizon - one sound made up of different layers, embodying a Chinese philosophical principle: the individual carries the mass on its back, and the mass - carries within it the individual. The splitting of the sound gives rise to different forms of life. The dancers bury, hug and lift each other, dedicate themselves to a gentle and powerful movement, support each other, and move with the subtle frequencies of the music to a harmonious, coordinated and simple movement. The work draws its inspiration from two sources: "Works of the Chariot" which appears in the Book of Ezekiel, in which an invisible world is revealed before the Prophet and the "Dào dé Jīng - Book of the Way" by Lao Tzu - one of the most important Chinese philosophers.
