Public Moves invites participants to take on a special dance challenge together: after briefly getting to know one another and exchanging a few simple instructions, we dance for the entire duration of the *Goldberg Variations* – a 51-minute piece by Johann Sebastian Bach – without interruption. Everyone dances for themselves, while many others around us do the same.

The aim is to challenge ourselves with the unknown and not give up throughout the full duration. The music guides us through rhythm, offering images and inspiration.
