Organized by Georg Kolbe museum, in the framework of “Die absoluten Tänzerinnen”, available on Spotify (Episode 7)
“Vera Skoronel, a true exceptional talent of modern expressive dance. She was confident, charismatic, her enthusiasm infectious. “Not-to-dance – does that even exist?” she once asked, purely rhetorically, of course.” quoted from source
