Sasha Pushkin, pianist, composer played his original music. I really love Sasha’s style of composing and performing, improvising the live texture of the concert. Sasha Pushkin calls his style - "Exprovisation" - expressive improvisation. And this expression is very close to dance. Therefore, we are together in this video, being in the moment in different parts of the planet. Form snippets of video I created the whole fragment which I offer everyone to see. Thanks for filming Alexandr Fyodorov (#badplanet)
Enjoy the music and dance!”
Konstantin Grouss, choreographer, artist
“My motivation for creating music for this livestream concert was the “quarantine” situation in the world and intense feelings and thoughts associated with it.
It was the second concert from the "New World" series. Its feature is not only in the uniquely created music, but also the concept of international cooperation with movement and dance. The dancer sees a live concert on his screen and instantly at the same moment creates his own choreography. And the performer is motivated by the fact that the dancer at this moment also creates somewhere in a completely different place on Earth.
Collaboration with Konstantin Grouss always brings great pleasure. His creativity and real interest in the new is very motivating. Konstantin brings his ideas to the world and embodies them both in his movement and creating concepts and projects. His dance is full of his own soft, but strong way of movement that leads my imagination to the origins and philosophy of eastern martial arts, while giving one a sense of flying and lightness. And this is not only aesthetic pleasure, but also an example of attitude to life itself”
