Strings – A Triple Bill
Three daring visions – one unforgettable ballet
Experience three visionary works in one electrifying performance.
Edward Clug’s witty Chamber Minds explores human connection with striking patterns, playful imbalance, and ingenious staging.
Christian Spuck’s The Seventh Blue meditates on mortality through Schubert’s haunting Death and the Maiden.
Goyo Montero’s Chacona pushes dancers to their limits against layered renditions of Bach’s Chaconne.
Together, these ballets reveal dance as both urgent and eternal – shifting between intimacy, intensity, and collective resonance. A thrilling showcase of contemporary voices redefining ballet for today.
This moving performance that has something for everyone to enjoy, whether it be a contemporary spin or traditional ballet as we know it.
- Joanna Letic, 4ZZZ
This is surprising because they can, if programmed well, offer something for every taste. Queensland Ballet’s triple bill, “Trilogy”, is such a program, where, although not every work appealed equally, you left feeling satisfied.
- Denise Richardson, Dance Australia
The audience was held in silent rapture by their work, such that during a lull in the music all that could be heard throughout the theatre was Hidalgo’s breathing.
- Elise Lawrence, Limelight
The Masters Series’ triple bill of contrasting styles eschews set pieces and narratives. Bookending another world first are testing tributes created by choreographic giants of distinctive legacies; their programming together provides not only an interesting visual juxtaposition, but also a philosophical one.
- Olivia Stewart, Limelight
The choreography demands virtuosity and a restrained comic flair from the dancers, and they didn’t disappoint.
- Denise Richardson, Dance Australia
