"Subject to Change", released in 2003 - is a piece that stems from a duet formed by a man and a frail woman to a group of six dancers who shines with the beauty of a dance and the emotions it evokes. Will be performed by the Nederlands Dans Theater II, choreographed by Paul Lightfoot and Sol León and music by the composer Franz Schubert.
"Whereabouts unknown", released in 1993- is a piece that takes us back to the whereabouts of our existence, from the Australian Aboriginal dances to the rhythms, rituals and African masks. Will be performed by the Nederlands Dans Theater I and II, choreographed by Jiri Kylian and music by the composers Michael de Roo, Arvo Pärt, Anton Webern, Steve Reich and Charles Iver.
In addition to these great performances, the company complemented them with the organization of activities outside the scene that allow viewers to learn more about the Nederlands Dans Theater.
