Sarah Goldfarb is a Belgian choreographer/composer
who has been working in England since 1990. Her approach to choreography
is directly informed by her intimate connection to music. She has developed
an expressive dance-theatre language that integrates the physical and
the sonorous and defines herself as a choreographer/composer working with
the vocal, the physical and the object.
Sarah has toured both nationally and internationally with music-theatre
groups Swoop, Zig-a-tag, Babel and with her own music and dance productions.
She has composed scores for Shobana Jeyasing Education, Angela Woodhouse,
Little Angel Theatre and the Belgrade Theatre and was invited by the Gothenburg
Opera House to co-direct a large-scale opera with sixty young people and
ten professional musicians and dancers (1995).
In 1996, she co-founded the music-and-dance company ChiaraScura with Kathy
Crick in the vision to integrate music and dance into a single art-form.
Within a year of existence, the company received a Bonnie Bird Award,
a London Arts Board New Choreographer's Award and a Commission from The
Place Theatre.
Sarah was an Associate Artist at The Place Theatre and was short-listed
for The Jerwood Award for Choreographers in April 98. She was invited
to the Third Conference for Music and Dance in Stockholm (1998) to present
her work and to lead workshops on the integration of Music and Dance.
Back to shortlist.
