In a windless prologue accompanied by the rippling piano sounds of Simeon ten Holt's Canto Ostinato, the dancers prepare for what is to come. They hang off balance, as if leaning against the wind. Their arms cleave through the air, ready for battle. Then the swelling roar of wind machines drowns out the soft piano sounds. The dancers fill their lungs and proudly battle this (invisible) matter that they make tangible while dancing. The dancers from Introdans present the monumental dance performance TYPHOON (1986) by choreographer Krisztina de Châtel. In this performance, De Châtel's choreographic ordering urge is tested, as it were, in a flying storm.

A monumental test of strength in minimalistic dance performance.
