There is magic and magic. There is the power which uses mysterious, even frightening forces, and the power of funny tricks, performed as an entertainment.
And then there is Tero Saarinen.
Behind this gentle smile is a crystal clear talent of the dancer-choreographer-artist who is now world-famous and travels with his company around the planet Earth probably more than the satellites.
During this week we were lucky to see Tero in Finland and lucky to see something new: the pre-premiere of his new work with the working title Blossom & Decay at the Espoo Cultural Centre´s Louhi Hall.
How was it? The most unbelievable moments of pure poetry of the movement and human emotions. There was the dim light of intimacy, the desperate attempts to be free and at the same time to stay in connection with the warmth of a human body – and did I really see the tears in the dancers´s eyes?
Come and see it yourself: the official premiere will be in Helsinki next Autumn.
