DancePod with Skånes Dansteater

This episode explores some of the pathways that today’s young dance artists take into the profession. We focus on the transition that dance students make in becoming professional artists, and the role a dance company like Skånes Dansteater plays in supporting and nurturing young talent through the dance apprenticeship scheme. Line Branchereau and Ischa Statie reflect on their apprentice year in Malmö and their hopes for the future.

Hear a brief excerpt of one of Line Branchereau’s favourite moments from Second Landscape, choreographed by Marina Mascarell. And Jon Ipiña Aparicio takes you through a short creative task based on musicality for everyone to try at home.

‘Because we’re curious’ is a series of interviews with dancers about curiosity. Is curiosity a simple delight in small discoveries or the incendiary desire for an imagined future? Is it a chain of momentary fascinations or a lifelong and stubborn investigation? We want to learn more about curiosity by digging deeper into what could, should and does make dancers curious.

This podcast is a collaboration between Tanzkongress 2022 and ‘DancePod with Skånes Dansteater’ – a podcast created by dancers. It was born from a desire to hear the conversations happening at the heart of creative processes; to open up and demystify them for wider dance audiences; and to celebrate the knowledge generated by dance and dancers.

The ‘Because we’re curious’ series consists of 6 episodes. (Episodes 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34.)

A throwback to last year’s highly acclaimed performance Mozart’s Requiem, a collaboration between Skånes Dansteater and Malmö Opera. A work that swept the audience through darkness, joy, sorrow and gratitude. Dancers Samuel Denton, Anette Jellne and Emma Välimäki talk about working with Örjan Andersson, one of Sweden’s most renowned choreographers, and share their experience of dancing side by side with Malmö Opera Chorus on one of Northern Europe's biggest stages.

You’ll get to hear a brief excerpt of Mozart's Requiem. Dancer Kristian Refslund guides you through a movement exploration with some of the tasks and imagery that were used in the creation.
