Founded in Montreal in 1957 by Ludmilla Chiriaeff, Les Grands Ballets Canadiens present a pas de deux from Jeunehomme, a masterpiece created in 1986 by Uwe Scholz. Inspired by the melodic finesse of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the work showcases virtuous neoclassical choreography where grace, precision, and emotion converge. Originally conceived for 21 dancers, this iconic piece reveals the full choreographic and musical depth of Scholz, a leading figure in contemporary European ballet.
