In this piece Calixto uses two movements from Mozart's Symphony 25, one of his two "Sturm und Drang" pieces - the term stands for a rather violent artistic reaction against the norms of society and other art movements during the second half of 18th century . In Troublemakers he combines the youthful, fresh, anarchic and non-conformist raw energy of the young dancers to the powerful drive of the composition. It is an "homage" to all the rule breakers and to those who cause a good deal of equally good and necessary trouble .
