Details

The Mark Morris Dance Group was formed in 1980 and gave its first concert in that year in New York. In the following years, the company s touring schedule has steadily expanded to include cities across America and Europe. Once considered the bad boy of the modern dance world, Mark Morris is now an influential and internationally celebrated choreographer whose pieces have become the standard of creativity for a new generation of dancers, choreographers and critics. The first part of the programme features the tender and poignant Somebody's Coming to See Me Tonight and the somberly austere and touching graceful All Fours. In the second part, Mr Morris himself performs in the flirtatious From Old Seville and the artistry and versatility of his dancers shine through in the breathtaking masterpiece Grand Duo.
