Jirí Kylián and the Nederlands Dans Theatre (1984)

Dedicated to bridge the gap between modern dance and classical ballet, the Nederlands Dans Theater forged a reputation as one of the most innovative and exciting dance groups in Europe. Under Jií Kylián's visionary direction (from 1975 to 1999), the company's international pre-eminence kept growing. The three programmes show the choreographer's unique and very personal style, his affection for group performances and his remarkable ability to create highly inventive, witty and miscellaneous ballets.
