Gavin Higgins: What Wild Ecstacy
To celebrate the centenary of Nijinsky's iconic ballet L'Après-midi d'un faune, Artistic Director Mark Baldwin presents his brand new modern-day take, What Wild Ecstasy.
This colourful and athletic dance work is set to a pulsing and feral score, commissioned by New Music 20x12 as part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad, by Gavin Higgins, a remarkable young composer who was Rambert's first Music Fellow.
What Wild Ecstasy will be shown alongside the Rambert version of L'Après-midi d'un faune, both performed by the Company's world-class dancers and the Rambert Orchestra.
