HOLLAND AMERIKA LIJN by Introdans focuses on choreographers from America. Following a visit to the Mauritshuis museum in 1964, Glen Tetley drew his inspiration from The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp. In his theatrical ballet Rembrandts painting is movingly brought to life. A programme featuring American modern dance would hardly be complete without the maestro José Limón. Ballet Dance Magazine wrote about Psalm: The use of the stage space and the overall sense of dance architecture was a stunning achievement. Robert Battle regularly surprises with his swinging dynamic works. No Longer Silent was praised by The New York Times as a remarkable dance that evoked primitive rituals in complex and modern terms. In this choreography the powerful ensemble sections and haunting solos evoke the social tension between the group and the individual. Robert Battle develops a sophisticated play of line and works in the tradition of great American choreographers such as Limón and Robbins. With this combination of works, HOLLAND AMERIKA LIJN is a programme full of dance and vitality.

In HOLLAND AMERIKA LIJN van Introdans staan choreografen uit Amerika centraal. Glen Tetley inspireerde zich in 1964, na een bezoek aan het Mauritshuis, op De anatomische les van Dr. Nicolaes Tulp. Rembrandts schilderij komt in dit theatrale ballet op ontroerende wijze tot leven. In een programma met het accent op de Amerikaanse moderne dans mag maestro José Limón niet ontbreken. Ballet Dance Magazine schreef over Psalm: The use of the stage space and the overall sense of dance architecture was a stunning achievement. Robert Battle verrast met zijn swingend dynamische werken. No Longer Silent werd door The New York Times geprezen als a remarkable dance that evoked primitive rituals in complex and modern terms. In deze choreografie demonstreren de krachtige ensemblestukken en indringende solos de sociale spanning tussen groep en individu. Robert Battle ontwikkelt een uitgekiend lijnenspel en werkt in de traditie van grote Amerikaanse choreografen als Limón en Robbins. HOLLAND AMERIKA LIJN is met deze combinatie van werken een programma vol dans en vitaliteit.
