In Light and Shadow

“Krzysztof Pastor’s finale collage of blithe flirtations and elegant dalliance” 
“A dazzling array of witty inventions that celebrate Bach’s musical patternings and élan”
“Baroque courtliness is spiked with a joie-de-vivre.” - The Herald, 5*


“A dynamic confusion that gives the piece a refreshing sense of timelessness.” - Critical Dance


“the stunning interpretation proved Scottish Ballet deserves to be seen on the world’s stage” - The Scotsman, 5*


“speedy, flirtatious dancing” - The Times, 4*


“an appealing, delicate work  … with whirring arms and fleet touches, they fly around the stage in ever-changing patterns.” - Daily Telegraph


“the parade of skills and skirts (men too) flying with natural elegance” - Guardian, 4*


“Pastor’s colour-saturated In Light And Shadow.  The Bach score is a gift …  Pastor’s quick-flowing contemporary style (with women on pointe) allows the different personalities and styles of the company to shine.  The dance comes in great waves and ripples, with sculptural balances to still the eye.  It is a feel-good finish that shows Scottish Ballet’s every hue.” - Sunday Herald, 5*
