Black Grace

Black Grace's work Method, described by choreographer Neil Ieremia as ‘like a bunch of my mates running round the backyard, having the time of their lives’,  is seen here being performed at Jacob’s Pillow (the premier United States dance festival). The piece was originally a collaboration between Black Grace and the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, which played the score, Bach’s Brandenburg concerto no. 3.
