Call open until October 15
In order to promote choreographic creation and experimentation by young artists, the National Dance Company (CND) opens a new call for “Creation Residencies”, aimed at emerging choreographers and/or companies who, if selected, will be able to use the rehearsal rooms, as well as part of the CND infrastructure. The selection of choreographic projects will be carried out based on criteria of innovation and artistic excellence. The CND will contact those selected starting November 2, 2023.

We made the most of his visit to get to know more about the creation of this ballet, the challenges he faced when remaking a classic, and how both the costume and set design complete a piece that was a turning point in the interpretation of a constantly changing myth.

There, she danced the part of Olga in Picasso, by the renowned Antonio Ruiz and, after taking part in Don Quijote Suite, by José Carlos Martínez, she later joined the CND under the direction of Joaquín De Luz.
