Concertante at Dutch National Ballet
21 January 2010
The Dutch National Ballet will tour the Netherlands with a.o. Hans van Manen's Concertante, created in 1994 for eight of Nederlands Dans Theater 2's young dancers and set to Frank Martin's Petite Symphonie Concertante. Punctuated with both humour and aggression, this intriguing piece is infused with the most effervesecent solos and intens pas de deux, all revaling the Van Manen hallmarks of refined simplicity, visual logic and intense musicality. On tour until 19 March 2010.
