Ballet BC is back in force with an outstanding triple bill in which the music of Ravel’s iconic Bolero acts as a catalyst to enhance the power of the ensemble.
Under the artistic direction of Medhi Walerski, this major Canadian company has forged prestigious collaborations with some of the biggest names in contemporary dance. Up-and-coming choreographer Shahar Binyamini offers his take on Ravel’s famous Bolero. A long and unique uninterrupted crescendo; a spectacular celebration of the power of dance and our collective strength, embodied by 50 performers. Medhi Walerski presents Chamber, one of his most acclaimed works. Danced by a large ensemble to a stunning score by Joby Talbot, this work, which seeks to balance order and chaos, echoes Igor Stravinski’s legendary Rite of Spring. A third surprise work completes the program. A promising evening that showcases the exceptional skill and virtuosity of Ballet BC’s dancers.
