Virta

Choreographed by Leah Suskind (2020)
Virta was inspired by the music, "Vaihtovirta" by Pan Sonic, which means alternating current. While investigating the rhythm, timing, and dynamics of the movement, Virta, meaning power and current, represents the connection between two people and the energies that they create. When one person moves, it affects the other, and there is a balance within their relationship. The dancers each incorporate a different rhythmical element into their dancing: one dancing with the staccato accents in the music and the other with the more sustained melodies. This contrast in movement displays the dynamics in relationships and how each individual contributes to the alternating current that creates a bond between the two dancers.
Performed by Kenzie Ginter and Finleigh Zack
