**Please note the change to this event: Instead of watching Valentino work on his new piece, the attendees will now be treated to Matthew Ball rehearsing his piece Acts of Exaltation.**
Acts of Exaltation by Royal Ballet Principal Matthew Ball, is a joyous exploration of
communities coming together to celebrate.
Royal Ballet Principal Matthew Ball premiered his first ensemble piece at The Next
Generation Festival, June 2024. Acts of Exaltation is a piece for seven dancers, set to several sacral and secular works by Baroque master, Claudio Monteverdi.

“Acts of Exaltation … set to music by Claudio Monteverdi … devises complex patterns of
bodies, arms and hands. … Elsewhere it opens out into sections that give the dancers light and freedom, allowing them to express a collective sense of joy in movement.” Seen and Heard International
