In Storm, three distinct artistic voices converge: OFFprojects, the Jazz Orchestra of the Concertgebouw, and British multi-instrumentalist Shabaka Hutchings – a pivotal figure in the London jazz revival and a bridge-builder between traditions, renowned for his rhythmic intensity. Together, they explore the vitality of the unpredictable: an interdisciplinary work in which structure and improvisation constantly push each other’s boundaries.

Drawing from minimalist structures and pattern music, choreographer Amos Ben-Tal and Hutchings lead dancers and musicians through a world of both strict precision and free exploration. Each performance creates a fresh, intense surge of energy and subtle friction. Storm explores the common ground between contemporary dance and jazz, demonstrating how both disciplines can amplify one another in both precision and poetry.
