Compañía Nacional de Danza

Originally, and under the title of Smoke, this ballet was created for Swedish Television. Revamped and adapted later for stage, Solo For Two is a melancholic love duet, mysterious and strict, considered one of the most admirable examples of the meeting between classical and contemporary dance.

This work, which the CND premieres in Spain, describes the intense communication between a man and a woman in all its psychological and emotional complexity. The two dancers explore human existence and its contradictions. Solo For Two is also an exemplary example of Ek's provocative style that combines the use of psychological dilemmas with a subtle sense of humor. The choreographer considers movement to be the most suitable means for individual expression and rejects valuing the aesthetic aspect as a priority.
