Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Shepherd (Floating Points)

Jamiel Devernay-Laurence’s winning formula for his Ballet Nights series has brought in new and old works, concert and dance, and continues to push the boundaries into 2026.

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.

Ballet Nights 008 – Spring into Summer proved to be a judicious choice of quality and diverse repertoire. 

Mere Mortals, an immersive sensory-experience ballet that merges dance, lights, visuals and sound, is clever.
