Suspicious Spaces features House of Ballet (1993), a work considered one of Mateo's quirkiest yet most engaging. Follow the alluring tale of a maniacal balletomane who abducts the object of his desire, set to Alfred Schnittke's Gogal Suite. The fast-paced, dynamicFearless Symmetries (2008), set to John Adams' Fearful Symmetries, features a young woman swept by the appeal of contemporary urban life and then overwhelmed by its very unpredictable forces.
