The Forsythe Programme
Author(s):
William Forsythe
Company:
English National Ballet
William Forsythe’s Playlist (EP) combines ballet classicism and athleticism with the music of Barry White, Natalie Cole, Khalid and more.
New Suite is an arrangement of eight early Forsythe pas de deux. Set to Händel, Berio and Bach, these memorable vignettes showcase his signature style—rooted in the classical tradition yet layered with unconventional juxtapositions of ballet’s kinetic logic.
Completing this special programme will be a world première. For this new work, Forsythe will build upon the 2nd movement of Prokofiev’s piano concerto number 3 in C major Opus 26; “Tema con Variazioni”.
