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. Richard Alston brings the world premiere of a new work danced to Handel's concerti for organ and orchestra. The sheer exuberance of this glorious Baroque music has inspired Alston to get his whole company to move. Rejoicing in melody, mixing rumbustious vigour with lightness of touch, this is a dance to greet the new millennium with a positive air. The programme also includes two of Alston's biggest recent hits, Red Run, Slow Airs, All of Them
