"Munch – en reise i dans,
musikk & billedkunst (Munch - a journey through dance, music and pictorial
art), takes its inspiration from paintings by Edvard Munch: Solen (The Sun),
Galopperende Hest (Galloping Horse), Ung kvinne på
Stranden (Young woman on the beach), Melankoli (Melancoly), Løsrivelse
(Separation), Stjernenatt (Starry night). Established choreographers
representing different styles have made short ballets based on these
paintings. Likewise, the composer has taken his inspirations directly from
the paintings. Edvard Munchs thoughts is read by an actor. By the use
of dance, music and paintings we have created a three dimensional
performance, suitable for an audience from the age of 10. So far seen by
over 50.000 people all over Norway. Supported by
Fund for performing artists and Danse- og Teatersentrum.
"This
must be experienced far beyond the border of Norway"

Avis (newspaper)
“Untraditional artistic experience from Dans & Toner. The composer,
choreographers,
musician and dancers have created a performance where one
sees lines and can imagine the
continuing stories in the pictures of Munch,
and at the same time gives us room to
use our own imagination. This was
beautiful!”
Telemarkavisen
"This
was one of the most successful performances we have seen,
not least because of brilliant
direction and presentation, but first and
foremost because of exceptionally brilliant artistry
from
both dancers and
musician - we take our hats of!"
Gloppen school
