Being on a journey - with Dean Biosca

Due to the current COVID-19 restrictions Marc and Dean couldn’t meet in the studio. In this home recording episode Marc and Dean speak about The Juilliard School, Dean’s first encounter with Pina Bausch’s pieces and the differences between the US and the German dance world. Dean describes his way from New York to Saarbrücken and Wuppertal and what his daily routine looks like during the lockdown. He tries to come closer to the essence of Pina Bausch’s pieces and reflects on the duality between surreality and humanity in her pieces. What makes Pina’s pieces so timeless? Dean Biosca has been a permanent member of the ensemble since 2020.
