Wayne McGregor and Ben Cullen Williams team up with Edward Gardner for a reinvention of Szymanowski's ballet Harnasie.
Creativity inspires creativity: a sound, a melody, or a whole composition can spark endless different imaginative responses. Tania León opens the concert with her first new commission as the LPO’s Composer-in-Residence. Ravel waltzes on the edge. Wayne McGregor and Ben Cullen Williams join forces with Edward Gardner for A Body for Harnasie.
In a dazzling, cross-artform reinvention of Szymanowski’s ballet Harnasie, Wayne McGregor and Ben Cullen Williams's A Body For Harnasie uses digitally enhanced choreographic storytelling and technological interventions to explore the story of Harnasie in today's rapidly changing, contemporary world. Human and digital intelligence combine to form a kinetic, sculptural video installation that will be suspended above the orchestra on the stage, opening a portal to new expressive worlds and reimagining how dance can be created and experienced.
