Dancer meets wine connoisseur

Two experts meet and talk to the audience about their respective passions: one about wine, the other about dance. "Idar-Oberstein tanzt!" is supported by the Tanzland program of the German Federal Cultural Foundation. Funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media.

At the dance tasting, Sebastian Weber, founder of the Sebastian Weber Dance Company, and Dietmar Schuch, wine connoisseur from Idar-Obersteiner, serve up a hand-picked selection from their repertoire and answer the key questions about dance and wine: What is the background? Where does it come from and what does it want to achieve? How do I know if it's good or not? What do I need to know and what should I look out for?

The audience experiences three different wines and a selection of dance scenes, some of which are presented live and others on a large screen. Participants can listen and enjoy, but also ask questions, compare, join in the conversation and find out what they like best. The Tanz Tasting is a curious and relaxed encounter between dance makers, wine lovers and culture enthusiasts. It is suitable for anyone who is not sure whether they are at all familiar with dance. Or who would like to find out a little more about the creative processes in the Sebastian Weber Dance Company. Or who simply fancy an unusual evening with good wine.
