Contemporary Classics
Exciting contemporary classics from established choreographers each of whom challenged their own genre of dance.
Featuring Christopher Bruce’s Shift, an energetic study of 1940s factory workers during the war; Jirí Kylián’s 14´20Ë – a sensual duet of feral beauty and human entanglement taken from the choreographer’s 27´52Ë for NDT2’s 50th anniversary, with music by Dirk Haubrich; and Twyla Tharp’s The Fugue, set to the percussive beat of the dancers’ own feet as they spiral, twist and stomp in stack-heeled boots on an amplified stage.
Performed by Scottish Ballet
