Swan Lake Remixed hit the mark in captivating a potentially new dance audience with a unified front of solidarity, respect and appreciation for dance in all its diversity.

Evangelia Kranioti's film reawakens the extraordinary extremity of Stravinksy's original ballet score in the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic's performance. 

In the final instalment of aus LICHT, the Helicopter String Quartet lives up to the publicity hype and choirs perform marvellous feats.

The second day of aus LICHT is one mesmerising highlight after another, including the Netherlands Youth and Children’s Choirs in one magical and one sinister procession.

The performers in Part 1 of aus LICHT at the Holland Festival are amazing, but the production doesn’t rev up until the Archangel Michael goes on his dizzying world tour.

Until now I have been fairly sceptical about theatrical stagings of oratorios and other sacred works, so I was curious but cautious about the staging of Monteverdi's Vespers at the Holland Festival.

It's all there; the virtuoso dancing, brilliant live Philip Glass music, mysteriously connected couples whirled into a subtle feeling of expansion. If your brain lacks a much needed moral and creative boost this is your December pick-me-up.

Listening is the only requirement for travelling through the spatial soundscapes of Luigi Nono’s rarely performed masterpiece Prometeo. Looking almost got in the way at the Holland Festival.
