Verklärte Nacht (Transfigured Night) is set to composer Arnold Schönberg's late romantic score based on an 1866 poem by Richard Dehmel about a woman who confesses to the man she loves that she is pregnant with another man's child. Originally choreographed in 1995 by De Keersmaeker for an ensemble, this 2014 reconstruction is derived from a process of reduction, concentrating the poem’s dramatic structure in an evocative trio from which the narrative lines and expressive modulations emerge.
