Steps From Behind Voices

AB Dance Company and Alpo Aaltokoski Company’s new production invites you to discuss the world in which we live. The stage brings you both the AB Dance Company group and three Ukrainian dancers of Ethno Contemporary Ballett who had to flee due to the war reigning in their country.

Steps from Behind Voices is Aaltokoski’s tribute to Georgian composer Giya Kancheli (1935–2019) and the choreographer’s third production set to his music. One starting point to this production comprises the emotions and vision brought about by Kancheli’s music.
