Balancing vivacity with stunning
poise, this beautiful, classically trained company of 14
versatile dancers makes its debut in Woking, with an impressive
UK premiere. Inspired by four well-loved Russian classics
with music by some of the world’s finest composers,
Ballet Biarritz presents a fresh new repertoire of breath-taking
choreography by Artistic Director, Thierry Malandain.
Pulcinella • Music by Stravinsky
Based on the famous Commedia dell’Arte character, this playful romantic
comedy for 10 dancers brims with mischief, humour and hi-jinks.
L’Après-Midi d’un Faune • Music
by Debussy
Originally made famous by the legendary Vaslav Nijinsky, this intensely
beautiful and physical male solo tells the story of an adolescent faun’s
sexual awakening. Le Spectre de
la Rose • Music by Weber
This magical duet opens a window into the fantasy world of a young girl,
as she devours the scent of a rose and falls into a deep, romantic
dream.
Boléro • Music by Ravel
Powered by the thunderous music of Boléro, this intensely
expressive finale for 12 dancers, engulfs the stage with liberating
force.
Radiating a pure enjoyment for dance, Ballet
Biarritz present virtuoso performances and awesome technique with
exquisite elegance and powerful agility. |
