Aterballetto is at the Théâtre du Vellein in Villefontaine on 3 December 2026.
CCN/Aterballetto presents a true concert in dance. Preludio by Diego Tortelli is a profane prayer inspired by the writing of Nick Cave: five dancers become emotional stimuli, embodying obsessions, addictions and desires in a hymn to the body and its continuous transformation. In An echo, a wave by Philippe Kratz, the flowing movement of the two dancers recalls the motion of the sea. Reconciliatio is a delicate female pas de deux by Angelin Preljocaj set to Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata. Solo Echo by Crystal Pite, through Brahms’s sonatas for cello and piano, invokes winter to express something essential about acceptance and loss.
