Bodies and tension: feminine, masculine and baroque in Bach

In 1996, the dance company Corpo from Belo Horizonte presented the spectacle Bach. The music, the coreography and the visual elements as scenery and costumes are combined in a rereading of the baroque aesthetics. In this context, the dancers bodies play a major role in the inscription of tension, common in the baroque, especially through the way they perform gender relations.
