The basic signals of this we encode in music and the language of dance, while in lyrical phrases we search for celestial equivalents of our earthly transformations and stories so that we can eventually – in our craving – enter our own sacred space. In order for us to be able to cross over the symbolic bridge of metamorphosis, we must leave behind the old – place of birth, sweetheart, or people – so that by subduing the tokens of this we can recreate familiar patterns and be reborn ourselves as well.

We acknowledge the search, the ever-changing human condition and desires, the metamorphoses of man and woman, the turning-points of mind and heart, the states of transitory existence and timelessness. The nourishment of common roots slumbering deep within us is set in motion in dance, sung in choral works and formed into music. We reveal ourselves – because change is a gift; the path to discovering ourselves, the chance to find our place in the world.

Death, birth, transformation, love, time and faith are eternal human questions. And for us to recreate ourselves: "not to drink from the glass, but from the pure source." The beginning and the end are simultaneous: the sustaining strength of our past encoded in folklore is created by precisely this dramatic character, as our sole opportunity for spiritual renewal. It is through the formative power of dance, and the theatrical truth of its movements of birth and death, that we commit ourselves to this sacred transubstantiation, and the reinforcement that comes from true faith.
