Bandoneon - Working with Pina Bausch

Bandoneon: Working with Pina Bausch is a new translation of Raimund Hoghe''s original rehearsal diary that documented the legendary Tanztheater Wuppertal''s work on Bandoneon (1980), illustrated with photos of the production by Ulli Weiss, and personal images and notes from the dancers.This unique book records the method Pina Bausch developed and used, as seen by one of her close collaborators, Raimund Hoghe, who worked as dramaturg for the company for a decade (1979-1989). It follows the work from the first day in rehearsals to its premiere, chronicling the process with artistic sensibility - Bausch''s famous questions, the dancers'' responses and Hoghe''s own reflections as the piece develops.This important document sees its first English language publication, and is succinctly translated from the German by Penny Black. The diary is accompanied by an Introduction and A Portrait by Katalin Trencsenyi, following Hoghe''s journey from being a journalist to becoming an internationally acknowledged dancer-choreographer.Bandoneon: Working with Pina Bausch is essential reading for anyone who is interested in the work of Pina Bausch and Raimund Hoghe.>
