Sechs Tänze, by Kylian, is a work that combines dance and humor. According to the words of Kylián: “Mozart’s music was the main element for the creation of the Sechs Tänze. I suppose he was a funny man as he knew how to use sense of humor. To be able to dance Sechs Tänze one should be fast and put on a mask. It ́s like being yourself and not at the same time. Pretending you want something or not. It ́s like being manipulated today, tomorrow and yesterday. SPCD was the first dance company in Brazil to dance a Kylián ́s piece.
