Images of women testing their bodies’ endurance have been swirling about the universe lately.
For “The Goldberg Variations, BWV 988,” De Keersmaeker is joined by the young Russian-born pianist Pavel Kolesnikov.

This “Goldberg” is stark and simple, painting a choreographic picture full of shadows and light that mercifully loosens up over time.
So does De Keersmaeker, a respected experimentalist based in Brussels, who has turned to Bach several times over the course of her career.
