Eurythmy Performance

Otherwise, it would not be possible to accompany the way in which the whole person approaches you here on stage in their movements with recitation. For this recitation and declamation to eurythmy consists in the fact that, certainly, the individual gesture expresses something, but that what matters above all is the sequence of gestures, what I would call the angular, the round, the angular-round, and so on, of the gesture. It is not important that one performs this gesture here, but that one allows it to work as a whole. For art should not be interpreted intellectually – that kills it – but should work in the immediate sensory impression. And that is precisely what eurythmy can do.
