“Bach meets Thai”
Concert with Bach’s cello suites and Thai dancer Sasipan Srivilaluck. Alexander Suleiman, well known for his border crossings in art and music, demonstrates another stunning project. Two worlds collide: Traditional western music with Bach’s suites for cello solo is searching for a counterpart in the traditional dance culture of Thailand. Both of them will demonstrate how these two worlds can inspire each other.
