Friedemann Vogel by Roman Novitzky
After Not in my hands, Friedemann Vogel is once again joining forces with visual artist and choreographer Thomas Lempertz, this time to try his hand at co-choreographing a full-length work: Die Seele am Faden/Soul Threads. Inspired by Henrich von Kleist’s “About the Puppet Theatre”, this new solo will explore how the natural can arise from the unnatural, the touching from the artificial and the graceful from the trained, and have its world premiere at the Kleist Forum in Frankfurt Oder on 9th and 10th February 2024. DETAILS & TICKETS
After a year like no other, Friedemann was inspired to try his hand at choreography for the first time, and co-created “Not in my hands” with his life partner and former soloist Thomas Lempertz. Set to Mozart's"Requiem", the solo encapsulates Friedemann’s attempt to make sense of these extraordinary times as well as his confidence in the resilience of artists who will eventually triumph.
In his ongoing efforts to engage the audience until live performances resume, Friedemann is premiering the creation as a video on the Stuttgart Ballet’s YouTube channel, filmed by fellow principal dancer Roman Novitzky.
