Edinburgh International Festival: Grupo Corpo

18-22 Greenside Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3AA

Description

Legendary mixed gender dance company Grupo Corpo summons Brazilian history, culture and spirituality in two UK premieres.

Music is at the heart of Gil Refazendo, a piece which pays a transformative homage to one of the godfathers of Brazilian music, Gilberto Gil. Refazendo translates as 'remaking’, a theme which runs throughout the piece. Pivoting between graceful and high-energy motion, the dancers gradually build momentum and move as one, to the sound of Gil's eclectic mix of samba, bossa nova and electronica.
