London City Ballet, the former resident company of Sadlers Wells, returns after a staggering inaugural year that included a global tour through Asia, America and Europe. This season delivers a brand-new repertoire showcasing artists rarely seen in the UK.
In keeping with London City Ballets ethos of bringing to the stage rarely seen works, we present George Balanchines Haieff Divertimento – an early work by the master choreographer originally thought to be lost for 40 years after its premiere and to this day remaining unseen outside the USA.
Delicacy and technical precision are combined in Kenneth MacMillans virtuoso ballet, set to Shostakovichs Second Piano Concerto. Inspired by watching the young Lynn Seymour warmup at thebarre, Concerto remains one of Kenneth MacMillans most celebrated creations.
Emerging choreographer, Florent Melac, best known as a Premier Danseur at the Paris Opera Ballet, creates a new work for the company in unique, fluid, musical style which combines inventive transitions with intimate partnering.
Alexei Ratmansky, New York City Ballets artist in residence, is a leading light on the global dance scene. Pictures at an Exhibition, to Modest Mussorgskys eponymous score is set against a backdrop depicting Wassily Kandinskys best known masterpieces. Here the dancers truly bring the art to life.
