Three is a number with myriad associations and resonance, encompassing the realms of myth and mathematics, expressing minimalism, balance, and embracing asymmetry. In art, music, and literature, the triptych (or trilogy) is a well-known form, composed of three parts that develop one or more themes through the relationship between the parts, their shared qualities and contrasts.<\/p>\n<p>Naharin\u2019s Shalosh is composed of three sections, each taking its name from Latin. In Bellus (pretty, pleasant) the dancers move to the sounds of Bach\u2019s Goldenberg Variations, as performed by the inimitable Glenn Gould. The next part, Humus (earth, land) enters a somewhat different landscape with Brian Eno\u2019s Neroli providing the soundtrack to an introspective exploration of the moving body. The final part is called Secus, which means \u2018to the contrary\u2019 or \u2018otherwise\u2019. Shalosh is marked by an intimacy and extreme simplicity \u2013 set and costumes are minimal, the emphasis is on the dancers and the movement. The intense involvement generated by that focus creates a richly dense sensory experience, one that can be savoured time and again.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54557\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54557\" style=\"width: 835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-54557\" src=\"https:\/\/www.midnighteast.com\/mag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/B7-3-142.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"835\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.midnighteast.com\/mag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/B7-3-142.jpg 835w, https:\/\/www.midnighteast.com\/mag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/B7-3-142-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.midnighteast.com\/mag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/B7-3-142-768x460.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.midnighteast.com\/mag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/B7-3-142-640x383.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 835px) 100vw, 835px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54557\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Batsheva Dance Company &#8211; Shalosh\/Photo: Askaf<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Shalosh will be performed by the dancers of the Batsheva Dance Company: Iyar Elezra, Billy Barry, Yael Ben Ezer, Yarden Bareket, Guy Davidson, Sean Howe, Matan Cohen, Adrienne Lipson, Gianni Notarnicola, Ari Nakamura, Yoni (Yonatan) Simon, Danai Porat, Igor Ptashenchuk, Nathan Chipps, Londiwe Khoza.
