Nous Sommes

Nous Sommes

(1987)

Choreography

Jimmy Gamonet De Los Heros

Music

Marie-Joseph Canteloube
7 minutes

A romantic and emotionally charged pas de deux, Nous Sommes explores intimacy through sculptural movement and masterful control. Set to selections from Songs of the Auvergne, this sensual, slow-burning ballet challenges dancers with its suspended motion and intricate partnering. At once tender and acrobatic, the work captures the delicate balance between strength and vulnerability—an evocative portrait of connection.
