Fantasy on Sarabanda
Saraböndufantasía
A visual fantasy in claymation on the Sarabanda movement from J.S. Bach's D-minor partita for solo violin. An animated sculpture interprets the music and its expressions as in a ballet, a pantomime, or a silent film. Bach’s music is loaded with deep thoughts, allegories, hidden messages and strong emotions, but in a modest, subtle and distant way. Bach’s personal detachment from his work creates freedom and opens up a world of possibilities that are the inspiration for this claymation piece.
