Dreams of Ether

Nacho Duato

Dreams of Ether was originally created by Nacho Duato for the prestigious Nederlands Dans Theater. The piece takes us into a dream world, where eight women dance their dreams/nightmares within an extremely oppressive atmosphere.

  • World premiere by: the Nederlands Dans Theater at Lucent Dans Theater, Den Haag (Holland), September 11th 1986
  • Premiere by Compañía Nacional de Danza: at Palacio de Festivales de Cantabria, Santander (Spain), April 5th 2002
SUENOS-DE-ETER-3

The music by Landowski calls for a world where everything turns into a metaphysical speech, through which one can understand life through sounds. Joy, meditation, sorrow, frustration, desire, all these emotions developed by the eight performers in this ballet have their roots in the Concert pour Ondes Martenot for percussion and string orchestra by the wonderful French composer.
