LANA DEL REY – WHITE MUSTANG | Ballet Pas de Deux “La Source” (aka Bijou) by Remi Wörtmeyer
Pointe Pas de Deux “La Source (aka Bijou)” by Remi Wörtmeyer and performed by the lovely Erica Horwood & Sébastien Galtier for the Dutch National Ballet (2012).
Mr. Wörtmeyer is certainly one of my favorite choreographers, and it was actually his Pas de Deux “Penumbra” with Anna Ol (the one and only!) performed at the Dance Open Gala that started me on this winding-road through the world of ballet. His work is so beautiful, soft, gentle, and yet simultaneously striking. Watching his work stimulates in me a feeling similar to that which I feel when staring into the depths of a William-Adolphe Bouguereau Madonna masterpiece.
I edited the video a little and changed the music to “White Mustang” by Lana Del Rey.
