The contemporary face of London's Royal Ballet is shown in works from three of today's leading choreographers. Based around seven couples separating and intermingling, Christopher Wheeldon's Within the Golden Hour is set to music by Vivaldi and Bossi. Revived for the first time, Flight Pattern, from Canada's dance superstar Crystal Pite, uses Górecki's familiar music and a large dance ensemble for a poignant reflection on migration. Between them, Medusa, a new work by multi award-winning choreographer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, has its premiere to bring the contemporary truly up-to-date.
Includes two intermissions.
