Performer: Uwe Scholz

Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo managed to throw a thrilling surprise party, with every detail curated under the sign of Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the company.

Morgann Runacre-Temple's new creation, Hotel, appears in a triple bill between Uwe Scholz' Seventh Symphony and Jiří Kylián's Forgotten Land. 

Beatrice Rana and Mario Brunello provide live music for seven internationally renowned dancers, including Paris Opéra Ballet’s Hugo Marchand and Spanish flamenco whizz Sergio Bernal, at the 15th-century Rocca Brancaleone.

Les Grands Ballets has a new Artistic Director – Ivan Cavallari – and 13 new dancers, mostly cherry-picked from some of Europe’s best ballet companies. Montreal audiences are in for a thorough journey through European contemporary ballet movements; which is not so far from the trajectory the previous Artistic Director Gradimir Pankov established during his tenure

Das Stuttgarter Ballett demonstriert wieder einmal, wie sehr es sich der Tradition verpflichtet fühlt, manchmal mehr, als ihm guttut.
