The world famous and unsurpassable ballet troupe Complexions Contemporary ballet from New York will be opening the 20th International Baltic Ballet Festival “From Classics to Avant-garde” this year dedicated to the theme “Ballet Without Borders”.
The stars of the American ballet will demonstrate vivid ballet that is different from the classic ballet in its every detail. Creating choreographies following the principle “everything or nothing”, troupe combine different mixes of styles, methods, and cultures. The attention is paid to clear lines, the beauty of the body and virtuosity. The union of a stunning choreography, original music and the elements of classic ballet are breaking all the accepted canons of the dance. The leading motive of the company is dance as the uniting strength. It follows the idea that the goal of the dance is to break the boundaries. It`s artistic creators allow the art of the dance to form and develop in an interaction with the variability of the world.
Two internationally recognized ballet soloists Dwight Rhoden and Desmond Richardson founded the company of contemporary dance Complexions Contemporary ballet in 1994 with the goal of popularizing the professional contemporary dance.
Both artistic directors have cooperated with the world stars like Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince, Lenny Kravitz and others.
