A masters' touch | The Dutch National Ballet
21 September 2012
Hans van Manen's significance for dance in general and for the Dutch National Ballet in particular should not be underestimated.
New choreographic gems still flow from his ‘pen’ one after the other, and he still demonstrates all the steps himself in the rehearsal studio. Following a one-off gala just before his birthday on 4 July, the Dutch National Ballet’s 2012-2013 season will kick off with a special Van Manen programme, consisting of four highlights from his oeuvre:
Grosse Fuge
Four Schumann Pieces
Two Pieces for HET
Frank Bridge Variations
