“New Dances for Goethe Institut” is a site-specific work that takes place over the five floors of the  historic headquarters of Goethe-Institut Boston. Each floor of the building contains a different dance with accompanying live music. Music selections are from famous German composers spanning Germany’s musical history. All dances are co-choreographed between BDT founder and co-artistic director Jessie Jeanne Stinnett and current and past BDT performers in response to the musical selections and the architecture of the building itself. The work was made to inspire audiences to wander through the building and discover the building’s various spaces in a new way, through the illumination of live performance. The work was originally commissioned to coincide with the reopening of 170 Beacon St. following an intensive renovation. The premiere was delayed from 2019 to 2022 due to renovations and then COVID-19.
