NOTTE MORRICONE
2026-01-24 18:00 - 19:30, 2026-01-25 16:00 - 17:30 (Europe/Rome) | Théâtre de Liège, Place du 20-Août, 16, Liège, 4000, Belgium
In the prestigious setting of the Pays de Danses Festival in Liège, Aterballetto performs Notte Morricone by Marcos Morau on January 23 and 24, 2026.
“I, Ennio Morricone, am dead,” wrote the composer before taking his leave. His music, however, cannot die. This is how creators and artists always leave us without ever truly leaving, and how memory takes care to keep them alive, to keep them safe. Notte Morricone is my gift, a devoted tribute to the beauty he gave to the world.Notte Morricone unfolds in the twilight of an ordinary night in the life of a creative spirit who, alone and dazed before his papers, jots down notes and envisions melodies for films that do not yet exist, bringing stories back to life in the rarefied air of his room.Marcos Morau – Director and Choreographer
It is impossible to describe Notte Morricone, a masterful work that washes over the spectator in waves, embraces them with emotional currents, and captivates them with the memory of timeless melodies that have long outlived the images that first inspired them. Equally enchanting is the finely chiselled, ever-poetic choreography, composed with meticulous attention to detail: legs and necks seem jointless, bending and snapping rhythmically like metronomes.Maria Luisa Buzzi – Danza&Danza

The performances are held in collaboration with the Directorate General for Public and Cultural Diplomacy of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and with the Italian Cultural Institute of Brussels.

Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda arrives at Palazzo Bentivoglio in Gualtieri.

Sunday, January 25, 20263:00 PM and 5:00 PM

The Fondazione Museo Antonio Ligabue has a dream: to transform the Salone dei Giganti of Palazzo Bentivoglio into a living theatre. More than that, it envisions the frescoes depicting scenes from Gerusalemme liberata by Torquato Tasso coming to life through the dance of Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda, curated by the Centro Coreografico Nazionale / Aterballetto.

This is not just a performance. It is a one-of-a-kind site-specific event. The Sala dei Giganti houses the very frescoes that narrate the tragic duel between Tancredi and Clorinda. Painted art and performing art will face each other directly.Myth will become flesh, breath, and movement.
Would you like to help make this ambitious dream a reality and become part of the myth?

The theme of love overwhelmed by war and death, inspired by the story of Tancredi and Clorinda as told by Torquato Tasso in Gerusalemme Liberata (whose 450th anniversary of its first draft falls in 2025) and set to music by Claudio Monteverdi (1624), retains a striking relevance today.
The CCN/Aterballetto interprets this legacy through dance—its privileged language for conveying the work’s intensity and dramatic power—in a performance created by Fabio Cherstich and Philippe Kratz, performed by dancers Alessia Giacomelli and Kiran Gezels, tenor Matteo Straffi, and harpsichordist Deniel Perer.
The performance is preceded and followed by talks by Antonio Audino, theatre critic and journalist for Radio Rai 3, who, with his characteristic clarity, will cast a contemporary light on what are considered “sacred texts” of Italy’s cultural heritage.

Premiered in September 2024, Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda is a project aimed at enhancing live performance activities within cultural institutions and heritage sites, promoted by the Directorate General for Museums and co-funded by the Directorate General for Performing Arts.
For the realization of the project, the National Museums of Perugia – Regional Directorate of National Museums of Umbria—and in particular the National Archaeological Museum and Roman Theatre of Spoleto—established, with the support of the Directorate General for Museums, a partnership shared with five other major cultural sites: Villa Pisani in Stra, the Castle and Park of Racconigi, the Castello Svevo in Bari, the Certosa di San Martino in Naples, and the Archaeological Park of Venosa.Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome later joined the project, hosting the initiative as part of the summer program Sotto l’angelo di Castello 2024.

The project is part of Italia Danza, a co-designed initiative by the Directorate General for Public and Cultural Diplomacy of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MAECI) and CCN/Aterballetto, aimed at promoting Italy’s artistic heritage abroad.
BODIES AS MIRRORS

In my vision of Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda, I imagine a confined, circular space, where the proximity and resemblance of bodies play a fundamental role. Together with choreographer Philippe Kratz, we explore the idea of bodies as mirrors, thus narrating an humanity struggling against itself. Eros and Thanatos emerge as equally powerful forces, creating a paradoxical atmosphere in this perfectly balanced struggle between human beings.In our vision, Tancredi and Clorinda are contemporary warriors, indissolubly bound to one another, forced to fight and to enact a story that has already been written.
A single voice brings three characters to life: the text itself, Tancredi, and Clorinda merge into the body and sound of a single singer. This estranged sound, constrained within a circular path, creates a sense of constant repetition, underscoring the endless cycle of this story of love and death—tragically destined to repeat itself through the centuries and reach us today with all its force, as an emanation of the poetic power of Tasso’s words and the sublime music of Monteverdi.
Fabio Cherstich, Director

INNER STRUGGLE

In Tasso’s narrative, set to music by Claudio Monteverdi, the most obvious themes are the struggle between woman and man and religious conversion. Yet these are also the aspects I find least intriguing: translating them into dance would risk reducing the work to a narrative of factual circumstances.
A more philosophical or psychoanalytic reading of this struggle—one from which both protagonists emerge defeated, deceived, and alone—appears far more compelling to me. Within the opposition of the two roles there already exists an entire world: seeking one another, confronting one another, and wounding one another. The dynamic is that of a warlike, conflictual ritual between two entities that draw closer. The absurdity of the act becomes evident when one of the two loses their life and we realize that the other, in any case, has not won… a deep, shared wound that remains on both bodies.
So are these two people fighting each other, or is it perhaps one person struggling with themselves?
Philippe Kratz, Choreographer

Il 28 e 29 gennaio 2026, Aterballetto danza Notte Morricone di Marcos Morau al Theater Gütersloh in Germania.
“Io, Ennio Morricone, sono morto”, scrisse il compositore prima di congedarsi. La sua musica, invece, non può farlo. Ed è così che i creatori e gli artisti sempre ci lasciano senza lasciarci, ed è in questo modo che la memoria si preoccupa di tenerli vivi, di tenerli al sicuro. Notte Morricone è il mio regalo, un devoto tributo alla bellezza che ha donato al mondo.
Notte Morricone si svolge nel crepuscolo di una notte ordinaria nella vita di un creativo, che solo e stordito davanti ai suoi fogli, prende appunti e visualizza melodie per film che non esistono ancora, riportando in vita storie nell’aria rarefatta della sua stanza.
Marcos Morau – Regista e coreografo

Impossibile descrivere Notte Morricone, pezzo magistrale che arriva a flutti allo spettatore, lo abbraccia con onde emotive, lo cattura nella memoria di melodie intramontabili sopravvissute di gran lunga alle immagini che le hanno generate. Incantevole pure la coreografia cesellata e sempre poetica, composta con maniacale attenzione al dettaglio: gambe e collo sembrano privi di giunture, si flettono e scattano ritmicamente come metronomi.

Dreamers
2026-03-04 20:30 - 22:00 | Teatro Sociale, Via Felice Cavallotti, 20, Brescia
At the Teatro Sociale in Brescia, Aterballetto performs Dreamers, an evening featuring choreographies by Tortelli, Kratz, Preljocaj, and Pite.
A single evening unites the signature of Crystal Pite—the most sought-after choreographer across Europe and North America—with those of Diego Tortelli and Philippe Kratz, two of the most exciting and acclaimed under-40 creators on the international scene. Completing the program is a duet by Angelin Preljocaj, a choreographer long considered among the greats of contemporary dance.
Dreamers opens with Preludio by Diego Tortelli from Brescia, a love letter to the body for five dancers, built around some of the most intense poems and songs by Australian singer-songwriter Nick Cave, whose unmistakable voice envelops the audience.
At the heart of the evening is O by Philippe Kratz, former leading dancer of Aterballetto and now a choreographer in demand by major theatres worldwide. In a state of emotional transcendence, we witness the encounter between human and robot—two entities moving together to the endless rhythm of their unstoppable hearts.
This is followed by Reconciliatio by Angelin Preljocaj, a duet set to Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata that explores reconciliation through a poetic and impressionistic lens, inspired by a devoted yet non-literal reading of the Apocalypse.
The evening closes with the soft snowstorm of Solo Echo by Crystal Pite, inspired by two sonatas for cello and piano by Johannes Brahms and the profound verses of Mark Strand. On stage, one breathes the winter of the soul: time slows down, and the body becomes a vessel for moving and powerful introspection. With delicacy and intensity, Pite reflects on loss, the acceptance of change, and the mystery of resilience.

Al Teatro Sociale di Brescia, Aterballetto danza Dreamers, serata composta dalle coreografie firmate da Tortelli, Kratz, Preljocaj e Pite.
Un unico spettacolo che riunisce la firma di Crystal Pite, la coreografa più richiesta tra Europa e America, con quelle di Diego Tortelli e Philippe Kratz, due degli autori under 40 più interessanti e apprezzati nel panorama internazionale. Completa la serata un passo a due di Angelin Preljocaj, coreografo nell’Olimpo della danza.
Dreamers si apre con Preludio del bresciano Diego Tortelli, una lettera d’amore al corpo per cinque danzatori costruita attorno ad alcuni dei più intensi poemi e brani del cantautore australiano Nick Cave, che con la sua voce inconfondibile avvolge lo spettatore.
Al centro della serata, “O” di Philippe Kratz, ex danzatore di punta di Aterballetto e ora coreografo ricercato dai più importanti teatri. In uno stato di trascendenza emotiva, assistiamo all’incontro tra l’essere umano e il robot, due entità che si muovono insieme al ritmo infinito dei loro cuori inarrestabili.
Segue Reconciliatio di Angelin Preljocaj, duetto sul Chiaro di luna di Beethoven che racconta il tema della riconciliazione attraverso un lavoro caratterizzato da una vena poetica e impressionista, ispirato ad una lettura assidua ma non letterale dell’Apocalisse.
Chiude la serata la soffice bufera di neve di Solo Echo di Crystal Pite, che si ispira a due sonate per violoncello e pianoforte di Johannes Brahms e ai versi profondi di Mark Strand. In scena si respira l’inverno dell’anima: il tempo rallenta, il corpo si fa veicolo di un’introspezione commossa e potente. Con delicatezza e intensità, Pite riflette sul tema della perdita, sull’accettazione del cambiamento e sul mistero della resilienza.

Preludio / An Echo, a Wave / Alpha Grace
2026-03-07 21:00 - 22:00 | Scenario Pubblico, via Teatro Massimo, 16, Catania, 95131, Italia
Aterballetto performs at Scenario Pubblico / Compagnia Zappalà Danza in Catania on March 7 and 8.
CCN/Aterballetto presents an evening that journeys through body, soul, and memory, composed of three creations reflecting on intimacy, human fragility, and the power of shared feeling. Preludio by Diego Tortelli is a profane prayer inspired by the writing of Nick Cave: five dancers become emotional impulses, embodying obsessions, addictions, and desires in a hymn to the body and its constant transformation.
An Echo, A Wave by Philippe Kratz draws inspiration from the hypnotic motion of the sea, a symbol of eternity and a place of encounters, departures, and returns: a poetic duet, as fluid as a wave crossing through time.
Finally, Alpha Grace, also by Kratz, is a meditation on empathy, on that ancient and sacred ability to recognize oneself in others. Solitudes and individualities gradually transform into togetherness—into a harmony built on listening and sharing.

Il CCN/Aterballetto presenta una serata che attraversa corpo, anima e memoria, composta da tre creazioni che riflettono sull’intimità, sulla fragilità umana e sulla forza del sentire condiviso. Preludio di Diego Tortelli è una preghiera profana, ispirata alla scrittura di Nick Cave: cinque danzatori diventano stimoli emotivi, incarnando ossessioni, dipendenze e desideri in un inno al corpo e alla sua trasformazione continua.
An Echo, A Wave di Philippe Kratz prende spunto dal moto ipnotico del mare, simbolo di eternità e luogo di incontri, partenze e ritorni: un duetto poetico, fluido come un’onda che attraversa il tempo.
Infine, Alpha Grace, sempre di Kratz, è una riflessione sull’empatia, su quella capacità antica e sacra di riconoscersi negli altri. Solitudini e individualità si trasformano gradualmente in coralità, in un’armonia costruita sull’ascolto e sulla condivisione.
