Four Last Songs is considered one of the most important Dutch classical ballets of the Seventies, and is performed by major ballet companies all over the world. North's choreographic triumph, Entre Dos Aguas was originally set on the Ballet Rambert in the early 1980's it has withstood the test of time, entering the repertoire of many overseas companies. The vibrant Spanish music of Paco de Lucia and British composer Simon Rogers blends magnificently with this pseudo-Spanish neo-classical ballet, exploring rhythms of Rumba, and Flamenco. The dance styles fluctuate between Classical Ballet, Spanish and Contemporary in a series of dances demonstrating fluidity of movement, balletic grace and pulsating Spanish zapateado.
The finale culminates in an exciting swirl of colour, and buoyant climatic exuberance - a perfect finish to an evening of exciting dance.
