Classics, Music
The ballet originally comprised three parts, but without the first ensemble part Van Manen felt it was stronger, so that only the pas de deux remained: Two Pieces for HET. The two dancers explore each other and the room to the stirring music of the Estonian composer Tüürk, as in a nervously alternating courtship display without any fixed role patterns. The movement quiets down in an adagio to the stilled tunes of Pärt’s Psalom, where the partners feel each other in a sensual love-play full of subdued tension.
