|
Choreography: Mats Ek Music: Arvo Part For Alina (23 min duet or 8 min solo) Originally, under the title of Smoke, this ballet was created for the Swedish Television in 1996. Solo for Two is a melancholy love duet to music by the Estonian

each other's reflections.

Review: "In the great duet solo for two the oversized wall and staircase seems to symbolize the man's nursery fantasies mother/ lover - a giant personality in the shape of the magnificent Talia Paz. She changes his clothes, yet she needs him to nurse her too, Their passions are big, painful and confusing. This has evolved into one of those ballets that rips open the subconscious like lightning shattering a tree." The telegraph Talia Paz danced a magnificent three solos that transmit via movement and music deep emotions… Solo For Two by Mats Ek, is a contradiction in terms in which the other one is not there but has a perceivable noticeable presence, same times disguised in a man's shoe abandoned on the floor, in a melting letter , in a dance for two which executes alone.
