On Thursday, 12 June, Aterballetto performs at Atatürk Cultural Center as part of the 54th Istanbul Music Festival. The acclaimed Italian contemporary dance company presents a triple-bill program combining dance and classical music, featuring choreographies set to works by Beethoven, Brahms, and Gershwin. Tickets are available via Passo.
Founded in Italy nearly fifty years ago, Aterballetto is one of Europe’s leading contemporary dance companies. The ensemble is known for combining classical ballet technique with modern movement styles. Its productions focus on strong visual storytelling, musicality, and precise ensemble performance.
The program brings together three choreographic works by Angelin Preljocaj, Crystal Pite, and Iratxe Ansa & Igor Bacovich. Each piece explores emotion and human connection through movement, shifting between intimate duets and energetic group sequences. The performance highlights how contemporary dance can reinterpret classical music through a fresh and expressive stage language.
