LA NOCHE ETERNA Matter affects - Samir Calixto
The game between light and dark in nature has always fascinated people. It is an example of our desire to understand the world around us and the laws to which it is subject. The mystery surrounding the night and its expression in music and movement is one of the pillars of the performance LA NOCHE ETERNA (The Eternal Night).

The eternal night
Choreographer Samir Calixto and the prestigious Ensemble Black Pencil are looking for this depiction of the eternal night. They have found each other in the desire to create a performance based on existing compositions (from baroque to the contemporary repertoire) and a new choreography, which make our archetypal relationship to the dark side of nature tangible.
LA NOCHE ETERNA promises to be a physically intense and profound performance - characteristic of Calixto's oeuvre - enhanced by the Ensemble's musical richness and artistic originality. It is a dialogue with the unknown: not from the audacious desire to bring light into the darkness but from accepting the night as part of our existence.
