Contemporary dance. Richard Alston, Artistic Director of The Place, the UK's leading centre for contemporary dance, is internationally recognised as one of the most influential and inspiring choreographers in British dance. Overdrive is pulsating choreography inspired by the resonating push of Terry Riley's Keyboard Studies. The exciting score sets the whole company in frenetic motion; the result is wild, energetic and thrilling dance. Grey Allegro is driven by the feisty vigour of Scarlatti's Sonatas for keyboard. It is taut and elegant, matching musical lyricism with choreographic precision. Slow Airs Almost All reflects the sombre richness and warm sensuality of Mozart's adagios for string trio, played live.
