''Turun Sanomat'', 5.5.2011, s. 28.〕〔(Hunt Press Quotes ) ''Tero Saarinen Company''〕 As a choreographer Saarinen is known for his unique〔Placenty, Cecly: (Tero Saarinen Company - Poetry Dancing ) May 2006. Ballet Dance Magazine〕 movement language that plays with balance and off-balance, combining influences from Butoh and martial arts to classical ballet and Western contemporary dance.〔Ahonen, Piia: (What is Tero Saarinen's dancing made of? ) 2002. Finnish Dance in Focus.〕 Saarinen’s movement language has been described as “organic” and “inventive”,〔 “like Butoh with wings.”〔Hutera, Donald: (The Mighty Finn ) 1.10.2001. Danze Magazine.〕 He began his career at the Finnish National Ballet in 1985. His long international career as a soloist took off in 1988, after he won first prize at the Concours International de Danse de Paris. Saarinen left the Finnish National Ballet in 1992 to seek new influences in Western Europe and Japan, where he studied traditional Japanese dance and Butoh from 1992 to 1993. Saarinen founded his own group, Tero Saarinen Company, in 1996. By the end of April 2014, he has created 40 original works, many of them for other dance groups. Nederlands Dans Theater, the French ballets of Lyon, Marseille and Lorraine, the Portuguese Ballet Gulbenkian, the Israeli Batsheva Dance Company, the Swedish Gothenburg Opera ballet, the Finnish National Ballet, and others, have featured Saarinen’s works in their repertoires.〔(About us ) ''Tero Saarinen Company''〕 Saarinen has received numerous acknowledgements for his work as an artist. In 2001 he was awarded the Finland Prize, and in 2005 the Pro Finlandia medal. In 2008 The Finnish Cultural Foundation gave him an award for his achievements as an artist. International recognition includes the international Movimientos Dance Prize〔(Movimentos website )〕 for Best Male Performer, and the title of Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, granted by the French government, both in 2004.〔(People. ) ''Tero Saarinen Company''〕 ==Career== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tero Saarinen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
