Showing
The Cellist and Dances at a Gathering
Recorded at
Royal Ballet and Opera, Covent Garden
The Cellist is a ballet by Cathy Marston based on the life of the celebrated cellist, Jacqueline du Pré, whose career was tragically cut short by multiple sclerosis. Lauren Cuthbertson dances the role of du Pré, listed as simply The Cellist; Marcelino Sambé is the cello (The Instrument) and Mathew Ball is The Conductor. The cellist's mother, father and sister are played by Kristen McNally, Thomas Whitehead and Anna Rose O'Sullivan respectively. The conductor is Andrea Molino.
There is no plot to Dances at a Gathering. The choreographer of the work, Jerome Robbins, said:
There are no stories to any of the dances in Dances at a Gathering. There are no plots and no roles. The dancers are themselves dancing with each other to that music in that place.
