After memorable projects with Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker as Fase or Rosas danst Rosas and her first individual creations, Vendredi 10 mars, Angers and Trois danses hongroises, Michèle Anne De Mey founded her own company in 1990. Sinfonia Eroica dates back to the same year, presenting a work choreographed in 1990 and revived in 2006 that introduced De Mey’s company to the world. Inspired by music as monumental as Beethoven’s Third Symphony (Eroica), Sinfonia Eroica infuses both stage elements and dancers with the joy of dance and physicality as it alternates between playful and serious scenes, movement and contemplation, combining febrile energy with emotion. “She (De Mey) also knows how to invent a dance of her very own which is fluid, tender, deceptively casual, luminous and generous. “Sinfonia Eroica” is not to be missed.” Le Monde, 6 July 1990 "Le vent en poupe" Sylvie De Nussac
