Kairos/Sonett
McGregor's new work Kairos is a seamless marriage of design and structure set to Max Richter's celebrated reimagining of Vivaldi's The Four Seasons and features striking designs by leading British artist Idris Khan. In Sonett Ballett Z?rich's Artistic Director Christian Spuck plunges into the mysterious world of William Shakespeare's late sonnets weaving together music, dance and language with his customary theatrical flair and passion. Spuck returns to Edinburgh following his highly successful 2009 visit with The Return of Ulysses from the Royal Ballet of Flanders. As a dancer he performed with Jan Lauwers's Needcompany and Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker's Rosas before going on to become choreographer in residence at Stuttgart Ballet and Director of Ballett Zurich.

He has created works for Paris Opera Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, Stuttgart Ballet, New York City Ballet, Australian Ballet, English National Ballet, Nederlands Dans Theater 1 and Rambert.
