Ballet Cymru (formerly Independent Ballet Wales) are a young, vital group of dancers who are pushing back the barriers of classical ballet. Using powerful and timeless stories the company challenges its dancers to interpret some of the finest characters in literature. TIR Following the sell out success of Ballet Cymru's team up last year with Cerys Matthews, the company reprise this iconic work for one night only. Cerys' album of Welsh Folk Music is the inspiration for TIR and choreographers Darius James and Amy Doughty have used 11 of the songs from the album to create a unique work especially for the dancers of Ballet Cymru. Cerys herself is playing the music live on stage with the company. Celtic Concerto Ballet Cymru will be teaming up with harpist and composer Catrin Finch and orchestra Sinfonia Cymru to produce a new work based on Catrin's first composition 'Celtic Concerto'. Featured on the No 1 selling album 'Blessing', Celtic Concerto is a once only opportunity to see Ballet Cymru dance with Catrin Finch and 10 members of Sinfonia Cymru live on stage.
