SOUL

Andonis Foniadakis offers for this third collaboration with the company, a brand new deep and sensual duet, like the vibrations transmitted by the song Ball and Chain. An original version of Big Mama Thorton, Ball and Chain was made popular by Janis Joplin and covered especially for this creation by Ballets Jazz Montréal by the captivating and flamboyant Quebec artist Angel Forrest. The strength and exalted fluidity of the two company artists highlight the meaning and impulses transmitted in this anthological song. This creation bears the distinctive mark of the choreographer and Ballets Jazz Montréal characterized by pure energy and extraordinary physical power.

"Life is easy, little one! Think outside the box. Walk the wire. Do not turn around. Exist. Passionately. To insanity. Climb to seventh heaven, without thinking about tomorrow. Never hesitate. Don't deprive yourself of anything. Live hard and die young. You're a legend."
