Amu - 2005
Texts
Amu (of the heart) was Wayne McGregor | Random Dance's most ambitious, emotive and provocative collaboration to date. Choreographer Wayne McGregor and his outstanding company of dancers, in collaboration with heart imaging specialists Dr Philip Kilner and Dr Sonya Babu-Narayan, Lucy Carter (lighting designer), Shelley Fox (costume designer), Shirazeh Houshiary (visual artist) and Mark Hatchard (animator), question both the physical functions and symbolic resonances of the human heart.
Sir John Tavener creates his first commissioned original score for dance, where the heart is the centre of an inspiring musical dialogue of feeling, devotion and spirituality.
