Mixed Programme: The Anatomy of a Passing Cloud - T01376563736

The programme includes new works from New Zealand choreographers Andrew Simmons and Neil Ieremia. In his fourth work for the company, Simmons creates work to music by New Zealand composer Gareth Farr. Ieremia also sets work to music by a New Zealander, turning to Warrant Officer Dwayne Bloomfield's epic tone poem Passchendaele, first performed on Anzac Day in 2009. Ieremia's ballet of the same name pays homage to New Zealand's military role in World War I. London-based Venezuelan choreographer Javier De Frutos created The Anatomy of a Passing Cloud for Royal New Zealand Ballet in 2013, to mark the company's 60th anniversary. De Frutos intended the work as a ?gift to New Zealand', and explores Pasifika imagery and culture through dance and music. Completing the programme is Greek dancer and choreographer Andonis Foniadakis's Selon d?sir (According to desire), created for Geneva Ballet in 2004. This work uses mass movement to explore the contrast between heavenly inspiration and earthy energy, and is set to the opening choruses from Bach's St Matthew Passion and St John Passion.Choreographer Javier De Frutos.
