In Light and Shadow, performed to part of Bach’s famous Goldberg
Variations; Othello, a powerful dance drama based on the Shakespeare
play and choreographed by Scottish Ballet’s founding director
Peter Darrell; as well as premiering a brand new work choreographed
by Scottish Ballet Soloist Diana Loosmore, featuring music by the
Eastern European influenced ensemble Basquiat Strings.

watchable.”
