International
Dance Festival Athen
|
2008
saw the beginning of a long standing cooperation with the International
Dance Festival, Athens, which this year took place from 1st to 15th
July. Under the heading “Awards of the
International
Choreographic Competition Hannover” winners of previous
competitions, as well as this year’s prize winners were able
to
present their award winning choreography. It is the intention
that this cooperation tempts more Greek choreographers to participate
in the competition, leading to excellent Greek choreographers joining
us at the Easter-Dance-Days, Hannover.
A
similar cooperation is planned with the Spanish MASDANZA-Festival. The
three winners of this year’s competition will be introducing
their work there in the autumn.
As part of the World of Dance Festival there are an evening in 2009 when all finalists of the 22nd International
Choreographic Competition 2008 were be present. The
cooperation
is due to continue over the forthcoming years.
