Na Floresta
ballet in one act
music by Heitor Villa-Lobos, Wagner Tisso
One of his best early works, Na Floresta made Nacho Duato world famous. In this one-act ballet, the Spanish choreographer penetrates the savage mystery of the Amazonian Selva. By analogy, the bustling variety of nature represents the ocean of human feelings. Its metaphysical currents again and again give rise to a new and unrestrained tide of life, circumscribing its flow in an eternal cycle.
