A Few Steps From the World

The Palais Garnier is home to a secret, magical place that only ballet dancers can reach. A prima ballerina of the Opera de Paris uses her voice to guide participants back to the place that has inspired ballet steps for generations, and shares a backstage view of the dancers’ imaginary work.

With a sound composition combining electronic creation and the original music of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, this experience is a gentle invitation to movement, a moment of contemplation and dance experimentation.
