Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | A Month in the Country

A richly varied trio of works celebrate The Royal Ballet's former director, performed with sincerity and panache. 

The Firebird/A Month in the Country/Symphony in C is an effective and enjoyable programme to close The Royal Ballet's season.

An enchanting Ashton double bill in Birmingham comprising The Dream, to mark Shakespeare400, and A Month in the Country. 

The Royal Ballet's Ashton programme is a rare delight; and the mix of pieces shows how that know-it-when-you-see-it Ashton style is perfectly versatile. 

The penultimate programme of The Royal Ballet’s season takes the audience on a journey, from a joyous celebration with seven imperially dressed ballerinas, to a summer dacha filled with tense emotions, and finally back in time to the ceremonial rites of a Russian peasant wedding.
