Bandoneon: Working with Pina Bausch is a new translation of Raimund
Hoghe’s original rehearsal diary that documented the legendary
Tanztheater Wuppertal’s work on Bandoneon (1980), illustrated
with photos of the production by Ulli Weiss, and personal images
and notes from the dancers. This unique book records the method
Pina Bausch developed and used, as seen by one of her close
collaborators, Raimund Hoghe, who worked as dramaturg for the
company for a decade (1979–1989). It follows the work from the
first day in rehearsals to its premiere, chronicling the process
with artistic sensibility – Bausch’s famous questions, the
dancers’ responses and Hoghe’s own reflections as the piece
develops. This important document sees its first English language
publication, and is succinctly translated from the German by Penny
Black. The diary is accompanied by an Introduction and A Portrait
by Katalin Trencsényi, following Hoghe’s journey from being a
journalist to becoming an internationally acknowledged
dancer-choreographer. Bandoneon: Working with Pina Bausch is
essential reading for anyone who is interested in the work of Pina
Bausch and Raimund Hoghe.
