Sylvie Guillem: 6000 miles away

Choreography by Ek/Forsythe/Kylián

DanceEast and Aldeburgh Music are delighted to welcome back the internationally acclaimed dancer and Sadler’s Wells Associate Artist Sylvie Guillem.

Widely recognised as one of the world’s greatest dancers, Sylvie Guillem stars in this new evening of work by three of today’s most important choreographers; Mats Ek, William Forsythe and Jir˘í Kylián.

This Sadler’s Wells / Sylvie Guillem production features iconic dance-maker William Forsythe’s new duet, Rearray, for her and Paris Opera Ballet étoile Nicolas Le Riche.

Acclaimed Swedish choreographer Mats Ek’s new solo, Bye, for Guillem, set to Beethoven’s last piano sonata, has been heralded as a ‘masterpiece’ by Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. Completing the evening is a duet from Kylián’s work 27’52” performed by dancers handpicked by the choreographer.
