Dance

Description
Description
The Hong Kong Ballet presents an anthology of short ballets that have been specially selected to complement each other and to showcase the outstanding talents and strengths of the Company’s dancers. The show will open with Michel Fokine’s Les Sylphides, an abstract “ballet blanc” in a classical style, accompanied live on stage by Chopin’s delightful piano music; a mini-gala will follow, featuring international guest stars. The finale of this delightful programme will be the world première of a work, commissioned by The Hong Kong Ballet, from Jorma Elo, resident choreographer of Boston Ballet and undoubtedly one of today’s most sought-after choreographers.
Choreographers:MICHEL FOKINE (LES SYLPHIDES); EDWAARD LIANG (FINDING LIGHT (PAS DE DEUX)); MARIUS PETIPA; VAKHTANG CHABUKIANI (LE CORSAIRE (PAS DE DEUX FROM ACT II)); Christopher Wheeldon (FIVE MOVEMENTS, THREE REPEATS (PAS DE DEUX)); Jorma Elo (Shape of Glow)
