Tres coreografías de registros estilísticos homogéneos, pero capaces de reservar sorpresas gracias a las cualidades y el buen quehacer de la Compañía Nacional de Danza.

Lucía Lacarra y Matthew Golding nos acercan las distancias

Jorge Baeza Stanicic, 23rd January

Lucía Lacarra y Matthew Golding, también afectados por la separación forzada, proponían una unificación de coreografías preexistentes en un todo unitario para compartir su experiencia vital, fusionando sus movimientos con imágenes proyectadas en pantalla y con una selección musical de carácter íntimo y profundo.

Ivy Lin, 7th February

New York City Ballet presents a very entertaining quadruple bill which includes Alexei Ratmansky’s latest work, The Naked King, showing off the company’s comic talents.

Les « Racines » inégales du Ballet de l’Opéra de Paris à Bastille

Laurine Mortha, 6th October

Entre une pièce des années 1950 de Balanchine et les deux créations récentes des chorégraphes Mthuthuzeli November et Christopher Wheeldon, le programme mixte néo-classique produit un effet mitigé.

The Royal Ballet’s season opener, Christopher Wheeldon’s Like Water for Chocolate, is visually tremendous, very well danced but the many principal and soloist characters are difficult to keep up with.

Kathy Elgin, 4th July

Ballet Nights is more than an evening of party pieces: it showcases emerging talent alongside older favourites and, in the case of this first Scottish outing, has an eye to local tradition.
