The Compleat Consort

The Compleat Consort by David Bintley is a plotless ballet with a principle couple, accompanying soloists and a corps de ballet. Like a choreographed symphony, this Balachine-style piece is performed using a simple set and dancers dressed in neo-classical style. Jasper Conran designed a stunning collection of tutus for the girls and co-ordinating long-sleeved jackets for the men.
