PETER QUANZ
CHOREOGRAPHER
Q DANCE returns with an online programme of four new dance creations made during the pandemic!
Online showings from July 5-11, 2021 on Vimeo.
Choreographer, Peter Quanz, created three new dances while in residency in China with the Harbin Ballet. Two of the pieces were created virtually in collaboration with the Royal Winnipeg Ballet’s Alanna McAdie, Yosuke Mino, and Liam Caines. Rehearsals took place on weekends with Peter sometimes rehearsing at 4:00am, China time!
While in Harbin, Peter choreographed Beethoven’s Ode to Joy for the Harbin Ballet. Featuring twenty four dancers, the Harbin Symphony, and a two hundred voice choir, this work is a needed explosion of joy and colour.
