In a Suite for Two Pianos, German choreographer Uwe Scholz (1958-2004) created movements inspired by the reflections of plastic artist Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944) and Russian music Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943). Four works by Kandinsky are projected to the bottom of the scene by broadening the relationship between the different arts. Uwe was a choreographer who mirrored in dance the structure, dynamics and intensions of music.


Choreographer | Uwe Scholz (1958-2004): was a dancer and choreographer. He is considered one of the most important symphonic choreographers in the world. He created more than one hundred choreographies, among which stand out works such as The Creation (1984), Jeunehomme (1986), Beethoven's Seventh Symphony (1999), Galanterías del Rococo (1981) and Septett (1990). At the age of 26 he became artistic director and choreographer of the Zurich Ballet and six years later he founded the Leipzig Ballet, where he remained until his death.
