Goddess of dance personified in Faro |
|
The Company is celebrating its third anniversary with a gala dedicated to the goddess of dance Terpsichore, to which principal dancers of a number of European companies have been invited. Each of these chose the dances that were most representative of their repertoire in order to celebrate jointly the short but intense existence of the young company. The aim is to celebrate the beauty and magic of dance from the classical to the contemporary.
Dancers from the Companhia de Dança do Algarve, the Companhia Nacional de Bailado, the Hamburg Ballett, the Royal Swedish Ballet and the Saratov Theatre and Opera Company will perform choreography by M. Petipa, E. Beliaev, N. Abramova, C. Cantinho, A. Fernandes, Y. Ivanenko, A. Dellas and K. Pastor. The performance, which will last for 90 minutes, will start at 9.30 pm and can be seen by people of any age. source: Algarve Observer |
