Alpha Kryonia Xe


Choreography: JACEK PRZYBYŁOWICZ 
Music: ALEKSANDRA GRYKA
Set design: PAWEŁ RYBARCZYK
Lighting: PUTTO

The ballet Alpha Kryonia Xe is a choreography by Jacek Przybyłowicz, recently appointed the director of the ballet company of the Poznań Opera House. It returns to our repertoire on 11 December 2009, after which it will be shown as part of the ballet triple bill Alpha and More, where young Polish choreography meets contemporary Polish music.

The futuristic vision of the world set down in Aleksandra Gryka's music can be translated in many different ways into the language of movement and visual arts. Jacek Przybyłowicz has found in it a story of the creation. A group of beings is building something from scratch. Maybe this is the history of a civilization which is long dead, or maybe this story will happen in future. Perhaps on the distant Kryonia?
