CND2 HISTORY

dance picture

Compañía Nacional de Danza 2 (CND2) was originally created by Nacho Duato, in October 1999 in order to prepare future dancers for their professional lives. Subsequently, CND2 has come into its own right as a highly seasoned and dynamic company that further allows Nacho Duato’s signature ballets to be seen by audiences worldwide.
While Mr. Duato choreographs exclusive pieces for CND2 the company’s repertoire also includes his previous ballets as well as works by up-and-coming choreographers. CND2 inspires young dancers and offers new and exciting choreographic visions while enhancing the cultural panorama.

CND2 PRESS QUOTES

“Superbly trained and full of energy the 14 member younger ensemble-often called CND2 made a splash in its American debut at the Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival in Becket, Mass in 2003, and it similarly invigorated the audience at the Ahmanson Theatre on Friday when it opened a 3 day engagement as part of the Dance at The Music Center series.”
LA Times, June 2007 – Los Ángeles (USA)

“The evening’s three ballets soothed like rich, well-made food.”
The Orange Country Register, May 2007 – Irvine (USA)

“There is nothing “Juner” about this Juner company. A half dozen dancers skilfully conveyed the subtle nuances of Duato’s piece moving seamlessly between tender moments and playful ones.”
Philadelphia Inquirer, March 2007 – Philadelphia (USA)

“This is non-stop, eye popping, full-on dancing, packed with cool, clever surprises and physical non sequiturs that somehow make perfect sense.”
Albany Times Union, March 2007 – Albany (USA)

“This is wonderful stuff.”
The New York Times, June 2006 – Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival (USA)

“A dynamic young ballet with a lot of charisma.”
Dietholf Zerweck, March 2006 – Ludwigsburg (Germany)

“Impressive dancers.”
Kurier, March 2006 – St. Pölten (Austria)

“Strong steps.”
El País, July 2005 – Barcelona (Spain)

“Absolutely must not be missed, at the Olympic of Rome, due to the elegance of the compositions and the talent of its young performers.”
Il Messaggero, May 2005 – Rome (Italy)

“A soaring imagination lifts CND2.”
Boston Globe, July 2003 - Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival (USA)

“A fresh and revitalising air.”
Diario de Sevilla, November 2002 – Seville (Spain)

“Top Grade.”
