“a revelation on several levels…Please, everyone, play it again. Soon.” The Herald
After surprising audiences around the world – from Shanghai Concert Hall to the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. - Scottish Ensemble’s collaboration with Sweden’s Andersson Dance, a playful reworking of J.S. Bach’s masterpiece, the Goldberg Variations, returns to Scotland.
Fusing music and movement to profound and joyous effect, this production brings a fresh visual dimension to this revered piece of music, allowing audiences to enjoy its humour, humanity and beauty in an entirely new way.
After seven years of touring this, one of Scottish Ensemble’s most successful and popular productions, we are thrilled to be bringing it to Tramway for audiences to discover - or to enjoy all over again.
