WORKS

"I was so lucky that a considerable number of my dances were well-filmed and twenty-two of them are excerpted here. They range from footage of the extraordinarily powerful Darshan Singh Bhuller dancing Petrushka in our very first season right up to the last large piece I made for my company, Voices and Light Footsteps.
​
In all twenty-two dances music has been the starting point and indeed the be-all and end-all of my choreography. I hope you enjoy what I've done." - Sir Richard Alston
