Kol Nidre is the name of the declaration recited in the synagogue, prior to commencement of the evening service of Yom Kippur. Its name is taken from the initial letters of the declaration and it is a time to reflect and forgive.
These are the building blocks taken by Duato in his new creation for the Compañía Nacional de Danza 2 and from October 2009, Kol Nidre is also incorparates to the repertoire of CND. It is a more introspective, spiritual work that reflects on the situation of the youngest during armed conflict: those known as “war children”.
