The Pas de Pas de deux is a section of the classic ballet. It is a dance created for a couple, isolated from the rest of the ballet and destined for more virtuosistically dancer dancers, usually soloists or early dancers. It consists of an entrée (the entrance of the two interpreters), a somewhat executed together, a male solo variation, a female (or vice versa), and finally the queue, ie the reunion of the two ballet dancers danced together. In the male variation, among the other famous passages are the cabrioles, entrechats and grands jetés; for the woman the pirouettes, the arabesque sur pointe and the after ballonnè sur pointe. When the pitch is located at a central moment of the story told by the ballet, it is performed by two étoiles of particular technical superiority and is called Grand Pas de deux (for example, Grand Pas de deux by Sylvie Guillem and Laurent Hilaire in the ballet Don Quixote ).
