ŻfinMalta’s newest initiative Intimate Żfin is where music meets dance in one of Malta’s most elegant and historically resonant spaces, Palazzo Parisio. It is also an opportunity to see the company’s extraordinary dancers up close in a series of choreographic miniatures created by artistic director Paolo Mangiola.
Malta’s national dance company has teamed up with celebrated singer and musician Alexandra Alden and her band from Rotterdam and Malta, in a collaboration with Palazzo Parisio.
Intimate Żfin arrives in the middle of ŻfinMalta’s eighth season, with Malta’s performance spaces back to full capacity after a protracted period of closed theatres and borders.
Since joining the company in its third season, Paolo Mangiola’s vision has been to foster a culture supporting contemporary dance in Malta through relevant and intelligent dance works which inspire and move audiences – works which are multidisciplinary, challenging, and unique.
“My idea to invite Alexandra Alden to collaborate with ŻfinMalta, bringing her beautiful music and lyrics to the world of contemporary dance, is to open up our work to diverse audiences in an unexpected setting,” he says.
